Training Log: Chas

Tester jog before tomorrow's Physio session. Better than feared. Achilles grumbly (particularly inside edge near ankle bone) but not too bad.

Huddersfield, canal towpath to Marsden (with one detour), Wessenden, Goodbent Lodge.

Nasty fall near top of Wessenden. Front wheel went sideways and I went over the side of the track. Fell about 3m, luckily into dead bracken. Took a while to work out if I was OK.

Golf with Mick and Roy. 34 Stableford points (14/20).

Wasn't sure if my sore L shoulder would allow me to play but it was just about OK. Probably adversely affecting my swing though. R Achilles sore again. Ice afterwards.

Giving pilates a miss this week. Too many niggles to make it worthwhile (L glut, L shoulder, R Achilles).

Gardener Trophy indoor games day (as it was raining heavily outside).
I was rubbish at everything but worse I also seem to have strained my left glut attempting to do 10 pin bowling.

So two injuries from a non-active weekend. Not sure how serious until I try jogging at some point this week. Will be gutted if I'm unable to race undy at the C/S Cup...

C • CSC cup 5

Golf. Gardener Trophy, Luton Hoo.
Better ball with Nick. Not gelling well. Team score of 29 Stableford points. Record time for a round : 5 hours 20 mins !
Achilles not good either :(

Golf in St Albans. Two man team Texas Scramble with Nick. Struggled in very windy conditions. Only 41 points.

More worryingly my Achilles appears to have developed a swelling. Not particularly painful but concerning all the same.

Decided that I needed to get back into terrain. 2 miles south along the county boundary from Holme Moss and back. All apparently OK.
