12k tempo

5 hours sleep post last nights hospital episode but wanted to do the session today with it forecast to get hotter for the rest of the week. Ran in the Zoom Vaporflys and felt good for 3k and then ran out of juice.  There's no denying it I am tired. Pleasing though that despite the heat (and heck there was wind today too) and the undulating roads around the campsite I just about held it together for 12k in 44 mins (3.40s) to keep some semblance of respectability. Again nothing flash but another session done.

Got back to the cabin with J and boys eating croissants on the deck but most importantly Jack seemed ok :)

Beach then ensued with all 4 spending lots of time in the water, particularly the naughty middle double act on their boards. Crickey it's hot.

* Currently reading the Thomas Dekker autobiography 'The Descent'.  If you have not read it and you're remotely interested in cycling and it's murky doping past then this is a must read. Daniel Friebe (the now quite famous British cycling correspondent who also happens to be a friend of a friend) has dubbed it 'the most shocking doping memoir professional cycling has produced'.
