swimming 20:00 [3] 0.5 km (40:00 / km)

nope still can't swim. Just checking

Running warm up/down 15:00 [3] 7.5 km (2:00 / km)
shoes: Nike Pegasus 33

Orienteering (O'shea 2 days) 31:00 [3] 5.2 km (5:58 / km)
shoes: Nike Pegasus 33

Probably without a doubt the most scratchy/unpleasant bush I've ever encountered. I would have loved run the sprint instead of this but I couldn't stand driving down to freeway a 2nd time. Why you'd organise 1 event at 2:30 and the 2nd one at 8:10pm considering most people are travelling and will have to stand around doing nothing for 4 hours is beyond me. So I missed out on the sprint and got a street-O with some scratchy thick shit.

Note

Well my friday session had been postponed due to some pretty heavy smoke in the air but the rain came and cleared it all up! So we're back on!

Running warm up/down (WU/WD + Drills) 31:56 [3] 6.06 km (5:16 / km)
shoes: Nike Streak 6 (Flymesh Upper)

7 PM

Running intervals 33:11 [5] 7.71 km (4:18 / km)
shoes: Nike Streak 6 (Flymesh Upper)

Two sets of 8 x 200m intervals with around 1:00-1:15 rest (jog back to start). Happy that I got this much volume at a good pace in a session. Legs didn't feel too bad at the end which is great news. I am starting to feel like faster paces are becoming more comfortable which awesome :D

Running (easy) 41:09 [2] 8.75 km (4:42 / km)
shoes: Saucony Kinvara 8

easy kms getting the junk out of the legs after yesterday.

Running (Easy) 50:00 [3] 10.59 km (4:43 / km) +197m 4:19 / km
shoes: Nike Pegasus 33

Wow the legs were heavy today which makes sense after yesterday's effort. But I'm glad I still got the kms in at a nice easy pace.

Running long (Mid-week Long Run) 1:35:12 [3] 21.59 km (4:25 / km) +322m 4:06 / km
shoes: Nike Pegasus 33

Mid week long run. So nice to be able to run in the middle of the day without having to deal with 40 degree heat!

Tuesday Feb 14, 2017 #

Running warm up/down 30:00 [3] 6.0 km (5:00 / km)

Treadmill run today. Pouring outside so I chose to do the workout on the downstairs treadmill.

Running tempo 20:00 [4] 5.0 km (4:00 / km)
shoes: Nike Streak 6 (Flymesh Upper)

20 minutes tempo. Chose not to do my more favoured tempo workout which is 2*10 mins w/2 recovery and 2*5 mins with 1 recovery because I had to cook dinner and I couldn't really stand that much running on a treadmill before going insane. Set it at the equivalent of 3:36min/k which I believe is around 16.8km/h but it's hard to know how fast you're really going. Heartrate in the mid-high 150s which suggests the effort was on the east end of the threshold zone.

Running long (Flyers Sunday Long Run) 1:58:09 [3] 24.63 km (4:48 / km) +286m 4:32 / km
ahr:139 max:156 shoes: Nike Pegasus 33

Glad to have gotten in a session before the heat really rolled in. Can't believe how humid it is! I don't usually sweat that much, but today my singlet was completely drenched.
