| In light of the US WOC Trials taking place on one side of the world and EOC on the other, my own little attempts at training seem quite insignificant. On this gorgeous day, to quote one Rosstopher, I went off to the gym to do my usual (these days) Tuesday evening penance, consisting of ERG intervals. The plan today was to simulate "formtoppning" intervals and see if I can row myself into some semblance of shape for the last pre-Jukola races this week-end.
I did 6x(90sec on, 60 sec off, 60 sec on, 120 sec off), doing the intervals as hard as I possibly could. I was nearly in tears by the last interval, so that must mean it was a good workout. Warm-up and cool-down on a stationary bike. |

| Running. That's right. I felt really good the whole day and just could not force myself to do one of those loathsome activities like biking or rollerskiing, so I went out for something that the terms "gentle jog" or "shuffle" would be too generous for. Pain-free for about 6 minutes, then a soreness that did not get better nor worse for the rest of the run. When will this end?? |
