Yesterday, today and tomorrow are indoor trainer riding days. Why? Well the dreaded head cold has hit my house and I have my daughter home sick. She has been coughing and spluttering for 2 days and needs to have the remainder of the week off school. I'm lucky in that she is not a little child anymore and doesn't need the constant attention of a toddler so I can still get some exercise in. It just has to be indoors.
Yesterday while I fitted in 30 minutes of spinning and all my regular stretches and strengthening exercises I started to think about how inconsistent my training is. Every magazine I read says I need to have 3-4 sessions of running, the same of cycling and swimming. How do I do that with a family? I am happy to just focus on doing one session a week swimming for now but that still means I have all those other sessions to squeeze in and make them consistent.
The plan I came up with goes like this:
What do you guys think?

The plan I came up with goes like this:
- Monday - Bike ride
- Tuesday - Run
- Wednesday - Gym, run intervals
- Thursday - Swim
- Friday - Run (short) as my morning is spent training my friend.
- Saturday - Run (long)
- Sunday - Bike (long)
What do you guys think?
