Day 1 - HIIT A #1

Sweet Spot A

TD Ramp Test (FTP: 191)

All was going brilliantly well until about 60k when my body decided I couldn't eat any more. It was very frustrating as the legs felt ok and I was running very strongly and had a big lead (around 2:30 at one point in front of the eventual winner lee Grantham who ran a genuinely world class 6:42) but knew it was only a matter of time before the lack of calories would catch up with me. I got to about 83k before being reduced to a walk. Called it a day at 85k very wobbly and woozy. A great learning experience though and I will defo do another as I think I've got something decent in me, maybe c6:30 with a bit more prep, more wisdom and better fuelling next time. The main goals for me were 1) to win and get the World Champs qualifying time (6:55) and 2) to make sure I learned something. I knew 1 was out once I got in trouble but for 2 I liken it to my first marathon which gave me so much feedback into how to run such events. I have no doubt that I could have got the qualifying standard had I gone easier but 2 was still very important to me so I'm glad I gave it a good go. Absolutely no regrets. :-)
