In this photo: training in the garden - easy spinning at 100watts.Time is marching on and so is the race season. My injury seems to be under control. Since my leg cast was removed I've spent one week indoors on my turbo - following a ramp-like rehab/training programme. My first session consisted of a mere 10 minutes at 50 watts. Even though it may seem insignificant to some for me it was a milestone. I've been ramping this up daily and this morning was able to ride for 45 minutes at 100 watts.
Couple of things that have helped me stay focussed, including: constant contact with my team mates, daily race alerts (websites, magazines and blog entries) - keeping up with news as it happens - including the local UK scene, my new race bike and kit and reading the Lance Armstrong book - Tour de Force - on my train journeys in the morning.
Where next?
My plan is to continue training on my turbo for this week (until 18th). Then next week commute a couple of times to work. After that ride each day to work and begin my first race on the 7th April (Girvin Stage Race).
