Last week I was lucky enough to escape the poor Irish weather and head off to Majorca with the national squad for a week in the sun. The weather wasn't scorching - with daily average around 15 degrees Celsius but it certainly made for more enjoyable training.
My training has been going since the beginning of winter. I have built a solid base upon which I can now start to add some intensity. The racing season is only a matter of weeks away but my major goals for the season are still some months away so it's important to not get carried away in the early weeks of the racing season.
In Majorca, the training was at an intensity level which my body wasn't really accustomed too. A typical day would involve a two hour track session as a pilot on the tandem in the morning followed by a two or three hour road session in the afternoon on the road.
I will keep the site updated as I build up towards to the competitive racing season.
