- It was an early start.....a good idea as it was going to get rather hot today.
- I worked to the following nutritional plan for the session.
- At the 2nd and 4th hour I was going to have a Vegemite sandwich. This is a new concept for me. The aim of the Vegemite sandwich is to increase the sodium/salt intake during the session and to have something more than gels and powerbars in my stomach. I found this work very well...I had no adverse affects with the sandwich. Looks like a promising concept to use in the race.
- 1st, 3rd and 5th hour was to eat half a powerbar.
- Every other 30min slot was to take a Hammergel.
- This plan worked well, along with the hydration plan as usual. (drink every 15min)
- Legs were playing the game...it was good...real good.
- At 8.00am it was 32degrees
- At 9.00am it was 36degrees
- It was hot.
- I was really..really satisfied with my efforts this morning.
- The first 6hr ride and it was a success.
Swim session reflections:
- This was primarily used as a recovery session
- Appears to be functioning well as this.
