Training - What Training?!

My jammers and goggles turned up today and they fit, so I’m running out of excuses :joy:

I got bloody filmed too.

I know there’s a lot wrong. I didn’t need evidence :see_no_evil:

I was thinking of trying a swim next week. No idea where any of my swim kit is. Might have to order some more. Prescription googles are shite and there is such poor options. Might just go with normal ones, my eye sight isnt that bad and only need to be able to see the black line

ETA - my emails tell me I ordered a pair last March so better find those I guess

Having reviewed the footage, calling it swimming is a lie.

I went to the cold water place and didn’t drown whilst occasionally pressing my watch buttons when the tide got me to the side.

50 mins tempo intervals at the gym this morning as the weather was awful - 10 min intervals but failed as was blowing out my arse on the 2nd and third reps by 8 mins so did another 4 min rep to make up for it

1 hr 20 walk the dogs with daughter. Wore 10kg weighted vested to make it a bit more interesting- can get away with it at this time of year under a coat instead of looking like a suicide bomber when the weather is a bit warmer

3 hrs of ironing to clear the Christmas backlog :muscle: house rules that he who does the ironing controls the remote - 4 episodes of Andor (excellent)

I was going to go swimming on Monday morning, but now need to “do something else” instead, so that’s my excuse :joy:

14hr 40mins cycling + walking (5hr) last week
15hr 49mins cycling + walking (4hr) this week (still got another Zwift and a couple of dog walks to do)

Gonna get out for a split 6km x 2 run today, see how the knee reacts.

Marshalling at my friend’s event at a point where last year some NIMBYs nicked the signs, TWICE!, in a morning. Looking like it’s gonna be soaking too! There’s gonna be a butt tonne of mud on the course. Kinda wish I was running it.

20km run in 2:02 then 1km walk home. Absolutely torrid out there and then with 600mtrs until home, the bloody rain stoped! :man_facepalming:

Brand new route for us courtesy of Komoot

20km with 636m of climbing around the woods and moors near Darwen including up to the tower on the top of the hill

With Jack and Oska

Coldest wettest filthiest run in as long as I can remember

Loved it

You didn’t have a 28 year old son egging you on every time you slowed down.

Might need an afternoon nap now :flushed:
