Training - What Training?!

Run that one by me again :thinking::grinning:

I smile when I think back to the lockdowns when yoga became my primary activity on Strava :grinning:.

I don’t smash yoga/pilates quite as much nowadays but it has probably provided me with many more injury free training sessions over the years than if I hadn’t started.

I am really enjoying it at the moment - I am pretty hopeless as I am so inflexible but I can feel the benefits already

I just have to keep it up and not fall into the trap of giving it up as soon as I can feel those little niggles have gone

Think I need to get on that train. There is a channel by a guy called Chris Branch that I find useful as well.

Presumably you are referring to an actual canine, maybe in your house, rather than to our esteemed early-rising colleague ? :smile:

Poor week so far from me.

But managed to get out for a warm and humid 14km at lunchtime. Felt pretty ragged for the first 5km or so, like i was on a sugar low, before my greedy body remembered the deal and just settled in to my familiar rhythm!

Evesham parkrun :3rd_place_medal:

Another third place :joy:
Just an easy one, a fair bit of grass and off road on this one.

Unsure of time :woman_shrugging:t2:
19:30 ish perhaps (splits as below, course came
Up GPS long, it probably about right)

Fairly easy as up early to walk the dogs and drive a fair bit to this :see_no_evil:

Was out yesterday doing two seperate events as Pool.

Left the house at 6am, cheeky little hour long OWS swim and then one event in Bexleyheath from 10-4, then quick drive to Cineworld in Basildon from 5:30-8:30.

Suffice to say I’ve had an easy morning.

Am now embarking on a stupid idea to get some more heat prep and am out for a 2-3 hour easy ride.

If I die, avenge me

This is going to be something ridiculous like a 3:30 trail marathon isn’t it :joy:

Minimum 50km I’m guessing.

Any other takers?
