managed to get out on the bike. Mostly Z1/2 but had some hill efforts as well. I find I recover well after cycling must be the muscle memory. I find the cycling is great for the mind and switching off for me so will like to keep up the cycling and being flexible with it, just being mindful of the running as well I suppose
I really believe in my pts system. I think it’s a great way to track training in terms of load rather than miles. From your point of view it’s just about being smart and looking at the numbers. We know last week was low due to your trip so no reason you can’t have a bigger week and go over target. That then evens it’s out a little over the fortnight. Its when you pile on big week after big week and you’ll end up crashing eventually and even worse, possible injury. But this is fine. Low effort and HR puts you in Zone 1, so around 21pts here. And as I said cos last week was about 40pts lower than your expected average you could hit something like 130-140 this week and probably be fine. But I wouldn’t go beyond that this week.
