a wolfking's routine

I've always thought that routine is one of the most important elements of a good training plan.

Whether its 4 am early morning "asaren" in the summer or 8pm on the rollers in the winter. A parent's training time is largely confined to the kids' sleeping time.

Recently I've been living as the woflking of the South Pacific.

Getting up before the kids for a swim before breakfast. Jump in to shorts. Grab the goggles. Dive in.

This is when the current is strongest and the fish most active.

After a day playing on the beach, Luke and Mark need a nap before dinner. Jump in to dry shorts (never run in wet ones!). Grab some music (John, the Wolfking of L.A.) Run.

Again the best time of day. Great music and a beautiful beach with a beautiful sunset is all the motivation I need.

After that, a bath. Dinner. A bottle of wine. A game of cards. A book. And bed.

Wednesday's training: Swim (90 mins) / Run (35 mins)

Thursday's training: Swim (90 mins) / Run (45 mins)

Friday's training: Swim (90 mins) / Run (45 mins)
