BLACK CHRISTMAS WHITE EASTER

We are forecast some cooler weather this week with the temp back down below freezing at night, Szilvi told me today that the Hungarian's have a saying "A black Christmas will be followed by a white Easter". Well after hearing this i headed out for an easy 4 hour ride and sure enough the first 30 minutes were spent in a light snow shower!! However this quickly blew by and the rest of the ride was in the sun!!

Training is going well, had a little blip last week as came down with Bronchitis, all the family have been suffering here!! Just reduced the training load and mostly worked on conditioning till the worst past by, just lasted 4 days and everything was ramped back up on Friday. Sunday was a high quality day with a VO2 set on the computrainer followed by 2 hours out on the road, a little rest then one hour run with 2x10min tempo thrown in. Tuesday saw a 40 minute threshold run in the schedule and i headed out on a 11k loop i use to see how things are going, ran well and finished the loop in 36.25 much faster than expected!!

Pictures of new bike and hopefully a video coming soon!!
