Training - What Training?!

First running interval session of the year with a friend. 6 * 800m, straight after sitting down for 11 hours at work. My legs have each independently sent petitions, citing the Geneva Convention.

There are good training days

That’s are bad training days

And there are days like today.

Double run day all around 5 min per km first session t mill one hour bang on 12 kph, but hot but managed a really good 137 av hr which is the lowest for some time.

2 hour rest

Second run with a friend outside 15 k at a slightly slower pace with similar hr, it’s hilly and warm.

4 k in huge toilet accident… farted but obviously didn’t … in the bushes and like a true marine carried on.

9 k in my left calf exploded, I’ve never been shot but I’m guessing this is what it feels like…?
Matey ran on to get the car while I continued hobbling quite dramatically for 25 mins before he picked me up.

3 cars stopped and offered assistance, in a pandemic that’s really nice, due to the accident I obviously declined.

One mile drive home was agony operating the clutch and I nearly crashed into a roundabout.

We’re ever you are and what ever your doing I hope your training… or life in general is going better than mine.

What doesn’t kill you …

I think you need to pop over to the rant thread as well.

Hope the leg improves ASAP
