Having been on two separate 5km runs this week with two different friends, I have discovered two interesting things.
Firstly, running is best as a solitary sport. Slowing down for others diminishes the training aspect of the run. Speeding up to remove the guilt of slowing the other down moves the body into the anaerobic zone, which is unsustainable and not suited to endurance training.
Secondly, 5km runs are no longer enough. Neither are 25km mountain bike rides or 2km swims. Not even if performed all in the same day.
I will have to adjust the jacuzzi to training time ratio in favour of training time!
And to cap it all off, I've spent most of this week eating. I mean really eating. Something has been going in every 5 minutes. I can't control it and I can only put it down to the increase in training distances.
Current weight is 13 stones (182 pounds / 82.5 kg).

You just love it don't you? - eating, that is.
I certainly can't deny it, what after tonight's Texan Fries!
According to authorities to complete an Ironman you should be living on non inflammatory foods such as cabbage and nuts.
This week I have been mostly eating Brussel Sprouts as Tesco had them on special.
Everyone in my vicinity is fully aware of this fact.
