Workouts- Monday was a moderate paced run with Kit, round the usual Carcosa loop, followed by some weights. Approximate distance- 11.6k.

Tuesday- easy 5k on the treadmill (as warm-up for my RPM class), some weights, then RPM class- 50 minutes, at a tempo-based effort. Saw Aunty Shine there. Aunty Shine, secret training eh?

On a separate note, I'm so happy that Man U demolished Roma 7-1 in the 2nd leg of European Champions League, quarter-finals. I couldn't stay up to watch the match as I was too knackered (I K.O'ed at about 11pm, and its the best sleep I've had in the last week or so), so the earliest I knew about the result was watching Eurosports this morning after I woke up. I couldn't believe my eyes when I read the score on tv- 7-1!!! Braces by Carrick and Ronaldo, with a goals each from Smith, Rooney and Evra completed the rout to secure Man U an aggregate win of 8-3 and a semi-final spot against either Milan or Bayern, for the first time since 2002, if I'm not mistaken. I'm only worried about their depth in the squad, as there's very limited resources with so many matches left. I certainly hope the players can hold up and maintain their fitness and level of play. C'mon guys, its the final push on all 3 fronts. Sir Fergie certainly needs to strengthen the squad for the summer, with at least another player in each department- goalkeepers, defenders, midfielders and strikers.

I certainly have to watch the match tonight. Photos below:-
