Summary of my IM Plan Training to-date

My 16 Week plan following the Spinervals 16 Week IM Plan started w/c 18th March.

It hasn't been perfect but at the same time I have successfully completed the majority of it.

I am happy with where I am at the moment;  my bike is strong and my first time trial last Thursday reinforced it; I opened with a 29.09 for 10 miles despite riding into a strong headwind and being held up at the turnaround;  I was only 20s away from our leading lady lol its started some excitement for the coming season;  so I've been informed.  

My running is coming on from strength to strength and completed a 1hr 45 min treadmill run feeling very strong and still full of running.  

Swimming is also coming on but a wee bit slower than I would have liked;  but signs are good,  I'm quicker over short distance but still working mainly on technique;  was disappointed to miss the swimathon today but I really needed to look at the bigger picture.

I've relooked at my plan and have taken this week as a recovery one (week 8 of the IM plan) and next week will see me increase back to the levels I need to be at;  each day lol if this works I will post my training; this will allow me to monitor how I feel and hopefully if I can share this with my friends get they input too.

We have used the time the last day or two between myself and my hubby to check we have everything I need for the race.   I only need to get my two piece race suit:)
