Training Review - Week 46 - Nov 7 to 13

The week started normally with cycle commutes to and from work and a swim set on Monday night. 

Tuesday I was meant to go offshore for a couple of days. After a 5am start and the early flight to Norwich I then spent the day sitting around NWI waiting to get officially bumped before catching the late evening flight home and going straight to bed. 

Wednesday I didn't have time to arrange clothes to train on my commute so I just had to take the train and in the evening I went for a swim. 

Thursday and Friday I got back into commutes with the bike and then a run. Clocked up some basic miles and got my week partly back on track. 

Saturday I was meant to go to Nairn to run the next race in the North District Cross-country League but I don't particularly like the course, so when I woke up with a sore toe that was enough of an excuse to stay at home.

Sunday I went to Kirkhill an managed to jog and mountain bike the rest of my planned weekly miles. Then I had some time to myself in the afternoon and I took the opportunity to catch up on some of the smaller sessions as well. 

Having lost Tuesday and most of Wednesday to work and then missing Nairn it was a last minute effort to make the numbers for this week. And having a calm weekend at home meant that I cleared a lot of chores that I have been ignoring for weeks and months.
