I'm screwed...

Hmm... currently, i'm seriously thinking about Battle up North and Southern Wars.

The past week has been filled with empty promises. I'm not in a very good shape. Managed to put some cycling in but I do not think its enough. Those two major events are less than two weeks to go. And I'm seriously in a really, really bad condition.

For the past one week, I only manage to put in a total of (almost) 2 hrs worth of aerobic work. A 15min run (if you can call a 15min, 8.5kmh session a run) and another 1.5hrs on the bike which covers a mere 45km. Sheesh, I use to do a 3+hrs ride on weekends. and at times in excess of 120kms.. The treadmill is OUT again (for the umpteenth time) and there is no ergo around. How am I going to do this?

Anyway, the best thing is, I manage to record a new high in MHR, which hits a ceiling of 217, and I'm able to operate at in excess of 190bpm. I never knew I could still do that and not feel overly tired. That's a start. The result of all this workout? I'm DEHYDRATED big time... and today, I'm feeling the effects of it.

Verdict? I DO need to take care of myself better... really. The trip up North? I'm still keeping my option open.
