Training Log: Ecmo

Around El Chaiten

In El Chaiten. Ran a hard 3km. The bits running with the wind were a lot faster than the bits against. At times it made me feel like I was going backwards.

Hammy was fine.

Around El Calafate in Argentina before breakfast. Whatever was bugging my hammy 2 days ago seems to have cleared up which I hoped reinforced my diagnosis that it was just soreness related to hill climbing and descending.

Ran from our hotel down to the lakefront, along the lake for a few ks then down the main street and a loop in the suburbs to finish.

Walking around the Moreno Glacier to various lookout points

This was supposed to be a speed session around the streets of Puerto Natales but when I started warming up, my left hamstring seemed really tight for some reason. I jogged around for a few minutes but it didn't seem to improve so I decided to call it quits without getting into any fast stuff.

I'm assuming it's related to all the hill walking we've been doing. Decided on a rest tomorrow and a course of stretching.

walking around the Milodon caves park. It would make quite a good o area. The vegetation and rock reminded me (at various times) of Sweden, Central Europe and Australia.

Had a 3pm lunch where I ate half a lamb hence the reason for waiting until 8 to go out.

Along the waterfront at Puerto Natales. Didn't run with my shirt off today - it was very cold and windy. A real struggle to get going and I chucked it in after 24 minutes.
