Brick Set

Fairly quieter morning in the park which was good as i was back on the bike and decided on trying a bit of a brick session again. Been a bit slack of late on these due to injury and the fact Roger isn't there anymore for the Wednesday session due to him doing other specific training.
Thought i would do 3 x laps bike - 3 x flagpole runs,
                              2 x bike           2 x runs
                              1 x bike           1 run (500 mtr)
Felt OK on the bike for the triple set without really killing myself and then run a little over 4 min/ks for the 1.5k effort , Tried to up the pace slightly on the doubles and was working a little over 6 mins per lap finishing in 12.10.
A few kind words to Usain about giving the single lap a go and pushed hard to complete the set with a time of 5.44 for probably the best I've managed this season.

Dragged myself down for the final swim set of the week after that and really didn't feel in the mood today, especially as i was there by myself and could barely do 1.9ks all up. Bit of a warm up and then 1 x 500 & 1 x 1k rep was about as much as i could do - Still happy enough with approx 6.3ks for the week, down on previous weeks although only done the 3 sets this week.


Nearly forgot to mention the other night at the movies - caught up with Old HuRTS boy and talented if not lazy the one and only Stallion Michael Durante. Must say for someone who holds the 'Harry's Pie & Mash, with HotDog record he looks in pretty good nick. He says now he has had his knee fixed up he will be back and hopefully joining us over the summer and is keen to start back and get his confidence up with a victory over Tommy H at the biathlon in October to continue his 100% dominance over the Chairman.

In other footy news - Big game of the week is the Man Utd vs Liverpool clash, on paper Man Utd should batter them but you never know in these big matches, and wouldn't be surprised if Liverpool snick it.
The Trash may come out with ....well Trash at times, but last weeks bold predictions came true about Stoke getting something out of City and that Kane and Stankard wouldn't run under 76.30 - hope you all collected :)

In even bigger news closer to home - don't mind Del Piero we have someone BIGGER ( about 25 kilo bigger to be exact) step up Emile Heskey. Those of you who are not up to date with English footy take a look at this clip - and this was when he was good :)

Unbelievable - i reckon if i don't get over these injuries  i might even get a start for the Perth Glory over in the West sometime throughout the coming season.

Have a great weekend, train well.
cheers
