Yellow Monte Gordo Beach Hotel
September 25th, 2009 by Gavin
I am coming to the end of my first week of winter training . . . it’s been so stressful I think I need a holiday ! On Sunday afternoon I am heading to Monte Gordo in Portugal
My training this week has been simple. Each day I swam with the squad apart from on Thursday morning when they had 50m reps off a 35 cycle ( a bit too speedy for me 4 days into winter), rode 2 hrs and ran an hour . . . . anything over 55mins gets rounded up to 60 and anything under 70mins gets rounded down – thats the rule !
5k / 2hrs / 1hr – a simple template.
Thats my plan for the first few weeks of winter, Monday to Friday with a slightly different mix on weekends (saturday sleep in !). Simples.
On Sunday afternoon I am packing up my template, flying to Monte Gordo for a couple of days, and will see how it works there.
Ill report back next week with the what, why, and how good the breakfast buffet is . . . . .
