Physio with Slice
Trying to figure out what is giving me some significant pain on the lower left side of my back. Slice was able to rule out anything in my spine (I wasn't sure if something was locked up or pinching a nerve). It seems likely that this arises from my weaker left glute. With all of my activity lately (3000m day, road trip for lots of biking and skiing with Revy (felt tight before the trip and the trip probably put me over the top), maybe even R2R2R before all of that), my QL is probably getting worked extra hard to compensate; Slice was able to immediately find the significant knot in it.
Lower back on the right was also not great, even though it hasn't been bothering me yet.
We did some IMS needling and current, and I've been prescribed some clamshells (both sides), 2x20, twice a day.
L4 seemed either like it is shifted forward, or maybe the process is just shorter than average. Otherwise the spine seemed good.

6 PM
Running (Intervals) 1:11:00 12.63 km (5:37 / km) +110m 5:23 / km
shoes: Salomon Sense Propulse
Around Quarry Lake. Almost as flat as a pancake as you can get in Canmore but by the last couple of intervals, the two slight rises on the loop started feeling significant.
Warm up and strides
3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 4, 4, 3, 3 min, with 2 minutes recovery between each interval.
Cool down
Less recovery than we have often done. We often have a work:recovery ratio of 1:1. Adam pointed out that our recoveries were too long.
Still felt like we had good energy to perform each interval despite the shorter recovery. However, for the last three I was getting tired. My breathing felt tired from the beginning of the evening; it felt like having so many days of no activity was not good for me, despite the fact that I must have been well rested. I probably need a hard workout or two to get back into it, wake things up.
Was quite tired after. Everyone was. Our workout volume is typically something like 8 x 3 min (24 min total work). This was 38 min work, with less recovery.
Didn't expect to be at this workout because of my issues with my lower back but after seeing Slice, I had a good run with no discomfort. The left side that she worked on felt fine. With that pain out of the way, I could notice a little bit of tightness and soreness on the right side. I had thought my right side was fine but she had commented that it was tight too.
It was great to be able to work out. Thank you Slice!
Toes were pretty good, noticed just a little ache in left foot after. Right foot seemed okay.
