Today's training
A morning at the track, gym, gym ...
This morning Dino and I hooked up with Uncle Pat D and did some solid work at the track between the showers that fell. We did a 15l warmup with a sprint finish (Dino won, again!), Pat did a 20 lap motorpaced rampup effort, Dino & I did flying 200's behind the bike, Pat did a 15l mini pointsrace effort (every 5 laps he comes off the back of the bike and sprints a lap), then Dino & I did another F200 effort behind the bike, and we finished off with a rolling start 350m sprint (Dino won, AGAIN!). A 10 lap rolldown and home ... Then I hit the gym. Squats - I dropped the cage rails down a notch as my flexibility has improved, and I only worked up to 4 x 5 @ 140kg, and with the extra depth that was plenty hard enough! A few assistance exercises and that's it for the morning's training. Tonight's the Mermet and clean pulls and clean & jerks.
I'm hungry!
Sunday's forecast keeps changing :
Cloud increasing. Isolated showers, increasing to areas of rain during the afternoon. Winds northeasterly averaging up to 20 km/h tending south to southeasterly around midday.
Totally off-topic, here's the receipe for the aboc Spag Bol.
I had it easy...
2. In the warm-up/scratch race I was third wheel for the last two laps and got a nice lead out while you were stuck on the front
3. In the 350 metre sprints I had the inside lane courtesy of a very open and transparent "pick a number between 1 and 10"
