@gingerbongo Will get the calves stretched. Also will keep rolling my foot over a stick roller while I’m sat at my desk as I believe thats meant to help? Weather is absolute grot for being on the bike this week and I don’t have a turbo
@FatPom No recovery sandals but I will stick to my fairly cushioned and much more supportive reef flip flops than slippers!
Hopefully it’s not that. But if you’ve got no major event looming large in the near future, then it seems sensible to take the risk averse approach. I say this knowing full well that i probably wouldn’t take my own advice, and would probably last a matter of days!
I get that pain in my heel quite badly sometimes and the bottom of my feet get very tender but I’ve never associated it with PF. I always thought PF was that pain you you get in the arch of your foot.
At the shorter stuff my row is quite a bit quicker but as the distance increases they seem to converge.
Fairly recent…
Row 2k 6:58 trained specifically using the Pete Plan to get a sub 7min, test was
Row 5k 18:43
Row 10k 39:18
Row 21k 1:29:36 (soft there is a couple of mins there for the taking)
Ski 2k 7:37 (this was part of circuit training, probably at 7:30 for a single test piece)
Ski 6k 23.39
Ski 21k 1:30:17 (soft think I could hold 2:03/500 for approx 1hr27)
Hyrox is 1000mtrs for row and ski? the running afterwards is the problem even the bigger guys didnt seem to go much under 2:00/500 split
1000m in the pool for me. Still very slow 750m continuous free but tonight for first time I had no urge to switch to breastroke and it felt properly comfortable. Progress, I think…
Massive f-off headwind all the way into work today. Just what i want at 0700!
At one point, i was on the flat next to the river pushing 300w and only going about 28kph. On that stretch at that power i’d expect to see something closer to 40kph!
Miserable. But at least it’s much more mild today. Think i’m going to ride home in a ss jersey! Hoping the wind doesn’t flip around and i can get an easy cruise home!
132km outdoors at 2.35w/kg. Bit windy out there, more so than the forecast from our friends at the Met Office/BBC, sadly the headwind was on the way home
Didn’t eat enough, didn’t drink enough.
Did a full lap of the old TT Man course and was mildly surprised to see that at the lake they are building ‘Luxury Lodges’. It’s a pleasant enough place but I’m not sure I’d want to pay for a lodge over-looking that particular lake, less so when some of the lovely locals tip up with their disposable BBQs and boxes of Stella.
