Past few days of hardcore training

Phew! Training has been intense the past few days and I've decided to give my body a break by declaring today (Wed 24 Jan) a rest day.

Summary since friday:

Fri (19Jan): 4k swim time trial; with 500m warmup & warm-down
Sat (20Jan): 24k run at Lower Pierce
Sun (21Jan): 160k bike at Batam with TriZen
Mon (22Jan): 1km swim; 5km run; 500m swim drills
Tues (23Jan): Morning - Gym. Evening run - 5min On 2min Off with the MR25 guys at Graveyard

My body is sore and aching severely... however I feel weird missing out a day of training. But I've decided to be smart and give my body time to recover and heal its wounds.

Here's a some pics from the Batam ride on Sunday.

After riding out of Batam town and waiting for all 21 cyclists to gather before the punishing hills and corssing of the 6 bridges.

It may look pretty... but the heat and the hills are a killer. Imagine 2 Mount Fabers, 3 Lower Pierce and 6 Mandai Roads and that's 1-way of the batam ride! Multiply that by 2!
