- Racing - Tapering for the Saturday's criterium races at Victoria Park.
- Training - Concentrating on a successful second half to my threshold training.
- Strava #1 - Classic Climbing Challenge (climbing 105,000ft in 47 days).
- Strava #2 - Segments.
- Maratona - Preparation for the event (including the Dragon Ride).
Therefore need to prioritise -
- The Strava segments come last, it's a bit of big boys fun but there be plenty of time for that shenanigans when the Maratona is done.
- The Strava Climbing Challenge, is distracting me from training.
- Racing - these early season races aren't my goal, so a short taper to minimise disruption to training will have to suffice.
- Maratona - Preparation is mostly in hand, a small change is required to avoid a double booking for the Dragon Ride.
- Training - the Maratona involves a lot of climbing which makes the threshold training phase the most relevant, the training has been a bit haphazard during the last 10 days due to illness and holidays so it's important that I get a solid three week block in before the end of this training phase.
Snotiness aside I did manage to get a decent ride in last week, cycling with my brother-in-law (Alec) from Bath to North Devon, covering 103 miles and 2,200m of climbing with some very steep climbing out of Lynmouth.
The team will be joining a ride this Sunday to ride up Edge Hill to commemorate Nick, this was one of his favourite local climbs.
