I can safely say that January hasn't started off with the training 'bang' that was my New Year resolution - kicking 2016 off with a great start and setting the rhythm for the rest of the year!
As it turns out, I've managed a grand total of 0km on the bike, 0m of swimming, and am 17km behind the pace already when it comes down to running - which is almost a weeks-worth of distance! I'll blame it on a number of things - the weather, work, and trying to fit food around training... What it actually comes down to is being rather bone-idle (despite the last post on training partners!) especially when they send you out to get the fish and chips whilst they are out for a run!!
Despite the laughably poor looking stats above, where I've only actually managed to meet the distance planned one out of four times, two of the others weeks have been within a couple of km of the target (as I pointed out to Ali as she sniggered at the stats over my shoulder!). This has definitely been an 'easier' month in terms of running, as a lot of it has been done along the canal or through town meaning a lot less elevation gain and quite often a lot less mud!!
However, February is a new month, so I can only hope it's onwards and upwards! The plan is to get out on the bike for the first cycle in 2016 on Saturday, so I can at least get off the block with that target, however swimming might have to hold off another week as it'll be a busy one at work!
