Training - What Training?!

But is it training? Maybe…

A session on the rack or against the cat o nine could be good prep for Lanza. Or that’s what I tell the Mrs. Mrs Whiplash that is.

Wrong type of pain cave I think.

nice ride to the pool this evening, well wrapped up, as it was bloody cold…. and then a short 1100m swim, still getting my shoulders used to swimming again after a LONG lay off… still feels like really hard work though.

and CTL finally back over 50 after hitting a low of 3 at the start of the year!!!

good on you for volunteering to help :+1:

7.2km in 1degreeC and pouring rain - my favourite running weather :joy:. Still keeping up with the 100/100, so happy about that. Off to the climbing gym later.

It’s good to put back into it IMO. No PB for Lo this week, it was very muddy so a 28.00 but still won JW10 :+1: :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Nope!

They said they’d come last night, the weather has just rolled in and they’re now both in their dressing gowns playing Mario Kart refusing to come :cloud_with_rain::man_shrugging:t4:

So, I’m getting changed to beat them both with Funky Kong :monkey::motorcycle:

Did the parkrun at Hartlepool this morning, O\T was 19:56 but I think it’s a bit generous although I did have a bit of a Garmin fatfinger problem at the end.

Last 2K was into a strong breeze and I’d been isolated pretty much all the run, didn’t think anyone was particularly close behind until 2 went past at about 3-3.5K :roll_eyes:, front 3 had vanished in the first K.

Slight improvement but probably need to get a bit more regular again.

Did you do the XC today :thinking:

No - see above :see_no_evil:

There was no chance daughter and wife wanted to stand around in that for an hour…

…did you go?

Club mates photos look GRIM :monkey::umbrella::crazy_face:

Yeah it was proper grim. Worst conditions anyone can remember in 10-15 years :joy:
