Combo

Today I did my last combo before the race June 8th.

I had hoped that my wetsuit would have arrived this week so I could have tested it in the pool but that did not happen and when I got to the reception to pay for swimming I was there way too early. Did not open til 12.00, had not checked the open hours on Sundays 🙂 So it was just to bike back home and get ready for biking to Lomma back and forth. it was perfect weather for biking in a t-shirt and capri sweat pants. Some upwind but not too bad. Total time 55.08.6 min.

Then it was time to change clothes for running a flat 5k run. Felt good with a breeze. Glad it was not as hot as it was Thursday, also perfect weather. Total time 30.11 min 🙂

So now it will be a couple more runs and then I will participate in my first sprint race which I am looking forward to a lot.

Combo

Today it was time for another combo.

Started with 400 m swimming. I was a bit late this morning so I was not alone in the pool but I am satisfied with the total time of 11.01.97 min despite obstacles.

Then biked home and changed clothes and it was time to bike 20.5k and forth to Lomma

Some upwind today to Lomma but was to bike as fast as I could and the total time was 53.53.6 min

Then the plan was to run to St Hans and run 4 laps on the new trail alignment. On the first lap I could have injured myself. Stumbled on something when I was running down a hill but got the balance back, lucky me it is not the best time to get injured. But I had some misfortune on the third lap. I am not injured, and took a decision to end the run there so the total time was 52.53.7 min. I was trying to run fast up some of the hills but felt tired in my legs after the biking so I just ran and the time would be what it would be.  The total k with the run to St Hans Extreme was approximately 9.5k.

Combo

Today it was time for another combo.

Started with 400 m in the pool. Saw when I was on my way to the locker room that Suz was the instructor at a boxing workout. It is interesting with these swimming goggles. I try to tighten them as much as I can each time but it does not seem to be tight enough. Swam 400 m and total time today was 11.16.63 min. Before I left I waved at Suz.

Biked home and changed. Today it was a nice temperature, 20oC (68F). It was noticable that it is carnival in town. City biking is always interesting, had to zigzag a lot more today. Not a lot of upwind on my way to Lomma. On my way to Lomma I passed a lot of bikers that I also passed when I got back to Lund. Total time today was the best so far 52.08 min.

Time to change again and run to St Hans hills and run 2 laps (St Hans Extreme light). Today it was time for shorts and t-shirt. I should have brought my water belt as well. It was warm and I also got some light dyspnea. Could have gotten a freesbee in my head today but was lucky it did not happen. There were also freesbee people and mountain board people where I ran. Total time today 33.57.9 min, cannot complain even it it was hot. Tried to run fast up the hills where I know I can. This was probably the last hilly run before St Hans Extreme race next week.

It is going to be one more combo before the race June 8th, next time I hope the wet suit has arrived that I am going to rent so I can test it to see if it fits me.
