Training Review - Weeks 35 & 36

Numbers again. 

Not much of a story. Have been ridiculously busy, and therefore have missed some numbers, but only by small amounts, and have replaced them with masses of untracked exercise so am not worried about them.

Elgin Parkrun (5th) and Gordonstoun Triathlon (1st MV, 6th overall) last weekend and Proms 3k this week (10th in the race, 3rd MV, 2nd M45, 9th overall in series).

Off to Bilbao this Friday for three European Championships next week.

Or at least I planned to. The broken rib I got on my last Asda shift meant I was unable to swim, and struggled with weights, core, yoga, and was in mild pain even when running and whenever I went hard on the turbo. I managed to adapt to put in some aquajogging after my surgery and do a lot of easy time on the turbo and a couple of easy road bike rides instead.   I did go to Glasgow and took part in the Aquathlon.
