Notes
Ok day.  On leave from work for Friday, so went in after dropping kids off.  Not many people so warmed up more than normal.  Kept sweatshirt on until the main working sets.  Elbow sleeves for warmth, and pushed a little upwards from target (~2.5% variance from planned).  Happy to have 5 plates for the board, first time in that range for a decade.   Ok, this block is complete, next I have a six week 'peaking' block, so much less volume, but higher loading.  Lets see how this progresses.
