So far so good.
I couldn't get out to the hills on Tuesday so instead opted for 6x1k on a flat tarmac loop, with 1min relaxed between each rep (kind of an extended fartlek session). Averaged 3:20-3:23 for the 1k's and the whole 10k session came in at 3:46 average which felt like a good omen!
Nice easy 10k's for the last 2 days, feeling good, and resting today ready for a paced 5k either tomorrow or sunday (depending on swim/bike plans).
Weight on the way down quickly since cutting the sugar/choc & red meat. Stable at just over 78kg fully hydrated so hopefully get down into the low 77's for race day. I was high 78's for the half and have been 80 (even 80.5) for many sessions over the past few months so that should feel pretty good!
Legs feeling good, no niggles.
