Today’s plan originally was a 4 hour brick as follows:
Brick 
| Date: Sun, 05 May 13 | Total duration: 4 hr | ||
| Your heart rate zone: | Zone 1: 112 – 131 | Zone 2: 132 – 150 | |
| Zone 3: 151 – 168 | Zone 4: 169 – 187 | ||

So after a 3 hour 35 min bike which my GPS counted as 106KM and my Polar 97KM (so I counted a century) I headed to the gym for my 30 minute z2 run. However after 30 mins I felt so good I decided to go on – and as I hit the 4 hour 30 min. mark I experienced a massive endorphine rush. I couldn’t help smiling ear to ear and had a sense that I could just keep going.
Fortunately my Ironman playlist ended after 1.5 hrs running providing me with a perfect excuse to stop.
They say train like a horse (don’t question the plan!) but today it just felt right. I’ll be going into my usual Monday rest + fast so hope that will help my body recover fully for the next week’s of training. 2 weeks now till Bintan!
