A 5:45am rising time to go and cycle about 60km is pretty hard, but worth it and good practice for the real event in June. It wasn't sunny, and I was a little chilly in my shorts and short sleeves, but not too bad. Coming home was good, but in the last hour my lower back started to ache. I guess with Sunday's >100km only 2 days ago, I was getting a bit of over work there. Again, no real trouble with the legs, and a quick recovery time.

Had to swim twice later in the week as my Tuesday cycle messed up my routine. Fridays swim was harder, my arms were tired. I've never noticed this before as I've never swum two days in a row.
