Another perfect day here in Ynyslas. More Sunshine and More wind. There were some lovely views over the estuary<\/a> from on top of the dunes first thing.<\/p>\n

When this was taken there was barely a breath of wind. That soon changed though whilst I was doing a hard VO2Max Interval session on the turbo trainer. I know I should have been out on my bike in the real world but with lots to do a quicl 45 minutes on the turbo trainer is much more productive that a couple\u00a0hours on the road. The session today was called Gendarme 45<\/a> and consisted of \u00a0two 15 minute sets of 30 second VO2Max ‘Bilats’. That’s 30 seconds hard, 30 seconds recovery for 15 minutes, twice. Tough, especially with the sun beating down on the conservatory which makes it pretty hot, but I managed it fairly easily as it is only 45 minutes long after all.<\/p>\n

Next up was a run along the beach, with some intervals between the groynes. I\u00a0didn’t really notice the wind on the way into Borth, but when I turned around to come back and had it in my face it was definitely getting stronger. The run was good though and then it was time for some work.<\/p>\n
