5k on the rower this morning - first time on it for just over a week. that just felt so uncomfy!!
Gentle 40km ride outdoors, still very mild but a bit windy and standing water everywhere after it chucked it down all last night.
Had to detour and nurse bike home with a broken spoke to change back wheel half way through (refer Weigh-in thread for probable cause )
A 3.5 mile lumpy run at 6 a.m.
Very mild out, ran in a cotton r shirt and shorts!
Double run today: slow chatty 12km trail (170m ascent/descent) this morning with my running partners and a tough 7.33km trail this afternoon with 259 ascent/descent. Iām also getting more confident at running down hill, trying to go more with the flow.
Iām 52/100 in the 100/100 on day 49. Weekly total is 73.28km running, bit less than last week which was 82.2km.
Bit of zwift action, two days earlier than last year so already wininng
15 mile trail and cross country run - utterly filthy
Got back just before the heavens opened
Dog worn out for a change
Bit of yoga later
Slept in this morning, so 30 minutes of yoga rather than a Wattbike session.
Added to our little pack of dogs at lunchtime, so training may be curbed for a whileš¬
Easy 70 minutes on the MTB for some cake, the cafe is closed until March now. It was rammed today though with people exercising off their Christmas guilt
Slightly mixed emotions on my run today. Managed to cover half-marathon distance for the first time but fell apart in the last 3 miles and crawled to 2:01:38 finish, so didnāt break the 2hr mark which was my goal.
Would like to blame the brutal headwinds in parts but just didnāt have it in my legs. Maybe was a bit of an unrealistic target. Going to drop back down to 15-18k and build up the stamina and keep working on strengthening up my hips as my right knee was folding in and giving me trouble from mile 8.
Also served as a reminder to get some body glide. Stopped just before my nipples passed the point of no return!
After almost 3 weeks off, finally got out for a ride. 40 very steady miles with a couple of coffees.
Good effort to be running that far so early in Jan. Get some more running in and that 2 hours will go pretty quickly.
Had a kid and wife free Sunday so no excuses!! Plus we still get so little good daylight hours here at the minute once Iām back at work on Tuesday itās going to be hard to get out for long ones so thought I would grab the chance.
A lot of stretching to be done tomorrow!
Well done
MAnaged to move some of the shit thatās been piled into my Pain Cave and lift some weights.
3x5 squat - felt some pain inner thigh on the fourth so canned it.
5x5 bench
5x5 row
14 hours this week as I start back
1 swim
5 runs
7 turbos
13:35 of training this week
11:40 of Zwift and 1:55 of running.
As per my post on the yoga thread yesterday, but this time with running. Oh dear me!
First proper run in a month, and boy did it feel like it! My body is feeling far from athletic right now!
That said, 22kms on the muddy trails with a couple of mates, back at 8.30 for Mrs GB to go out for a ride is still a winner. Regardless of the state of my legs right now! Hoping some more yoga later will loosen things off!
now thatās a decent reminder of your youthful age!
If I ran 13 miles after a month off, it wouldnāt be yoga iād be needing⦠itād be A&E.
A very gentle 35 minutes on Zwift.
