The weekend

The last few weekends have gone something like this;

Saturday bike 3 hours
Sunday bike 4 hours, 30mins XT Brick
Saturday bike 3 hours, middle hour 3*(15mins hard, 5mins recovery)
Sunday bike 4.5hours, 30mins XT Brick
Saturday bike 3 hours
Sunday bike Sportive (this was 60miles and took 4hours)


Clearly I'm the non-runner at the moment, hence so much biking

This time last week I was toast. I think the interval session on the Saturday followed by the Sunday wiped my arse.

Today however, although tired, I feel strangely OK with it all. I wouldn't say fresh. But I certainly am not feeling beaten up as I did last week. Granted this weekend has been a bit "easier" but I think what I'm feeling is ADAPTATION.... At the end of the 60miles today, whilst I didn't think I could do another 52 and then a marathon... I did think I could cycle more... and believe me I've not felt like that the other weekends....

So, this evening when this came on my car stereo... I thought it kind of apt....

Thanks Freddie for this one - you were a real rock star...

Tonight I'm gonna have myself a real good time
I feel alive
And the world, I'll turn it inside out yeah
I'm floating around in ecstasy
So don't stop me now
Don't stop me
'cause I'm having a good time
Having a good time

I'm a shooting star leaping through the sky
Like a tiger defying the laws of gravity
I'm a racing car passing by like Lady Godiva
I'm gonna go go go there's no stopping me

Two hundred degrees that's why they call me Mr. Fahrenheit
I'm travelling at the speed of light

I'm a rocket ship on my way to Mars
On a collision course
I am a satellite
I'm out of control
I'm a sex machine ready to reload
Like an atom bomb about to oh oh oh oh oh explode!
I'm burning through the sky yeah
Two hundred degrees that's why they call me Mr. Fahrenheit
I'm travelling at the speed of light
I wanna make a supersonic woman of you
