T minus 1 week

So it’s one week to the day to my race. Today I got all the prerace brief info so it’s official,… I’m racing and this is happening.

 

I’ve started my pre race phase and it’s a tad boring to say the least. My plan for this week is a casual swim to stretch my arms out and a casual run to stretch my legs out on tuesday. This will leave my body to rest for a week leading up to the race so that (in theory) I’m recovered and at my best on race day. Boring is not the word though :/ I’ve been getting up at 4 every day raring to go and instead, getting up and doing uni work. The mental strength needed this week I think is worse than when I am training because at least then I feel like I’m doing something, where as at the moment I feel like I’m getting up for no reason and then it’s the slippery slope,…. what’s one more hour in bed 😉 God I hate taper

 

Between blasting out a uni assignment this week on the fundermentals of search in artifical intelligence I think there will be a few blog posts to come. There are a few things that I’ve wanted to write about and / or have happened in the last few weeks that I want to blog about,… so you have been warned 😛

 

So for now I’m going to get back to do some research for this paper and consider some sort of carbo loading over this week while I’m at it 🙂 xxx
