Thursday training

Good to get back to cycling to work, even if short and not much of a workout, but will be good to turn my legs over for Sunday. Legs felt good today, refreshed, which was pleasing after Wednesday's session.
Came home and got off bike, changed into run gear and went out at a quick pace for 30 minutes, around 7 minute mile pace after 10 minutes warm up. Felt strong, legs good. Will do a short swim tomorrow and short bike/run on Saturday. Fresh for Sunday. In fact, I may even miss Saturday out. See how I feel tomorrow.
I want to be strong for Sunday. Short sprint tri, and I feel confident of producing a good time, with a good level of effort. 400m swim (8 minutes goal time) , 14.5 mile bike (40 minutes goal time), 4.5 mile run (32 minutes goal time). 1 hour 20 for the lot. Will have to push on the run, but I'm confident of putting in very good bike time.

You sound in good order for Sunday - hope it is not too early a start for you as you seem to have a lot of organising before you start a race. Hope the weather is kind to you and all goes well. All the best.

Thank you for your support!
Yes, feeling good. 8:35 is my start time, in wave 7 of 14 waves on the swim. Early start is no problem, but I'm hoping it's not quite as cold. Not looking forward to coming out of a warm swimming pool at 8:45 to a cold a blustery spring day.
Don't want to having to be bothered with putting on another layer.
But should be good fun! Again, will post results and write up after the event.
