Every Women Series Aquathlon Training Week 2

I caught a cold a few days after my first training post which meant my plans for lots of swimming and running was spoilt.

After a three day break to build up my immune system up i managed to fit in three 5k runs, along with some weight training sessions and circuits.

I have not had anytime to swim yet but will be swimming around 20 (100m) laps tomorrow.
One lap fast, one lap at normal pace x 20!

With only just two months to go until the Aquathlon i need to make sure i get my swimming up to speed!

Photos soon to follow!

Over and out!
