14/01/13 - Rest Day 15/01/13 - Rest Day 16/01/13 - Turbo Session After a week off from being ill, I was keen to get back to it. Still not feeling 100% but I needed to get back on the horse, and the horse on this occasion was the turbo trainer. I needed to do something, so 30 minutes was a easy target to hit, just sit on the bike and peddle and try and keep it consistent for the whole session.

I am keen to get the mileage back in my legs, so this run was ideal, no rush just a simple run. It was a flat out and back run, I turned on the 30 minute mark and came back to the car. I really enjoyed this session, and I know its building back my base layer stamina which is only a good thing for me going forward. The pavement was all mine, like a ghost town but that was great as it helped me complete an average mile pa...
