Training Review - Weeks 41 & 42

I had a stupid mountain bike crash on the first weekend, and between that and fitting a couple little races in to the next week I did less than I had hoped.  First of the SunlitShadow race series was Tuesday night. I started well but quickly ran into issue around the fatigue from the heavy block of training I have done recently. Then as soon as I tripped over a root my hip tightened up and I had to back off the pace from there.  Last multi-sport race of the year was this weekend. I went to Dundee for their Aquathlon. I don't feel like I raced particularly well, as I am pretty heavily bruised from the bike crash. The times say I was a single second slower than last year.  Actuals, (T arget) -  Swim 5.9  miles / 9,550  m. (6.3 miles). Bike 78.2 miles. (84.0 miles).   MTB 30.1  miles. (25.8 miles).
