Hi TheED - how are you?
I did the 4k TT today.
14:20 - and I felt pretty good. I did work quite hard, but legs were feeling nice.
This is a nice improvement from the 15:02 at the end of the build up phase, 9 weeks ago! :jive:
what do you think for taper next week? A basic outline in my mind is;
Mon - 40 easy
Tue - 20 easy + 4k at 21k race pace
Wed - easy 30 - 40
Thu - Fartlek - standard 6 x 1 min hard / 1 min easy
Fri - easy 30
Sat - rest day + sport massage
Sun - race 21k
Thanks for all you help, guidance and support
Dave
