Ill Ward family. Cold, fluey and the kids are asthmatic which = no sleep.

Trail running 52:57 [3] 5.8 mi (9:08 / mi)

Braids and blackford. Trying out compression sock to help my calf problems. They did well I think. Pf is the worst ever though, and I seem to be unable to run fast right now. Onwards and upwards.

Road running 27:25 [3] 3.3 mi (8:18 / mi)

From work to DVC to Blackford pond.

Intervals - long endurance 30:00 [3] 2.8 mi (10:43 / mi)

Sarah O'Neill is trotter captain, so leads training every Thursday. This week was a medley theme. 4 x 6 mins continual reps with 2min rec. The first 2 mins were on road, next 2 were on trail, and then it was 1min uphill, and 1 min downhill.

Great fun, it broke up the long session nicely. I was shite though. Just felt shite. Not dizzy which was good, just weak. Not sure how to stop myself feeling shite. Plough on with training and try to run out of it, or take time off? Hmm.

To buckstone via Frandy's to belatedly give Rebecca her birthday present.

Sprintelope. Fun. Felt as fresh as one of those dog shits that has been on the pavement so long it has turned white.

And home, and off to watch the judo club's Sally Conway down at the judo club. Exciting. She was totally robbed in the semi. Waiting for the bronze medal match now. Come on Sally!!!

Note

Morning in Amsterdam, evening on the ferry home. Busy busy busy.

The ferry was DFDS. They still have cabins on the deck below the car deck. The sight of the sign alone was enough to turn the stomach. Needless to say I chuck lots of money at cabins on ferries to ensure my kids don't see any things they shouldn't.

For those interested:

The plant pots are still not nailed in place
I managed to resist nicking a duvet / towel
There don't seem to do deckchairs any longer. I wonder why ;-)
