34:24 yesterday
Didn't have it on the day unfortunately. Through 5k in 16:45 feeling reasonable (although definitely not 'floating' like I was at Chichester)... but by 7k I knew it wasn't a good day. Completely blew on the last couple of hills, final 2k in well over 7 mins
I put it down to lack of sleep the night before + potentially going a little hard on my light-tempo on Thurs! Still, encouraging to know I can get under 34:30 on a bad day so pretty pleased overall
So... no racing planned until April 1st (first triathlon of season) so plenty of time to get some good cycles in while I build up the swimming/biking.
Going to do some nice easy 60min runs between now and Thurs when I'll kick off with the 2k's!
