Just back from a fab week of training with Steve Lumley and a great bunch of athletes in Majorca. Clocked up about 225miles on the bike including a great chaingang session and hill reps on the Lluc climb. The highlight of the week was climbing Sa Colabra, a gruelling 10km of climbing with some spectacular hairpin bends. The descent was terrifying and unfortunatley 3 of the welsh guys crashed. They had been pushing speeds of 40mph into the hairpin bends and Iestyn crashed over the barrier damaging his hand. There was some very nasty road rash but I'm sure they'll be back in action soon. Loved the 7am sea swims followed by a mega munch up from the breakfast buffet - I could get used to this! I'm yet to meet a triathlete who doesn't love their food!
