To and from Parkrun with Emily, nice cycle down and a miserable cycle home in the wet.

Cramond Parkrun.
Windy on the way out for once, so just tried to tuck in as best I could. Rather damp too, which was nice.
With Katie for the most part until she suddenly sped up just past 4km and I knew I'd never keep that pace for the rest of it. Turned out she had actually forgotten how far away the end was, so I nearly caught her up again, but ran out of path.

This was fine I guess, not that far off my rather slow pb, but I think I'd probably do better with nicer conditions and a week of better sleep

From the house, round Ravelston and the like. Still tired.
Left my watch at Emily's, so time is approximate and distance is from mapometer

With Emily, tired

Standard warm-up

10x Box Jumps + landing
5+5 Single-leg Box Jumps + landing

4x5 Back Squat (20, 40, 60 warm-up, 80, 80, 80, 80kg)

Very easy spin along the coast, just cruising. Super nice day, possibly even too nice

Home via the bike works to diagnose a mysterious creaking noise, and he asked if the bike was new, which is a true compliment of my cleaning ability

Splish splashing in the pool, rather pooped.

Breaststroke - 750m
