Training Log Archive: kwilliams

At the City gym. Body is really really tired today, so needed to do something different and easy on the joints. Doing laps, keeping an eye on the women's marathon through the glass into the cardio room (where they had TVs).

Abs

Slow jog too and from gym.

Warm up and cool down in Slottskogen (terrain and trail). Cooler day, but sunny.

Hill repeats in Slottskogen: trail uphill, terrain downhill.

With maps of WOC training areas: Rotmossen and Bjuds.

Abs

Warm up and cool down: mostly roads and park grass. Sunny, but cooler and windy. (Quite!)

The prolog course (sprint) from the O-Ringen superelite. A bit slippery because of all the rain, so had to be careful. Bobbled the first control (got stuck on top of a cliff), okay to #2, but came out of the control a funny direction. 3 through 8 were fine, though I think I should have gone the other way around the building out of 7. Messed up #9. Used the trail to have a good attackpoint, but somehow drifted over into the area near #4 and then had to come back. Still confused, but found it. Fine for the rest. Will run it again next week (with Helen again) to see if I can get it right.

Abs

With maps (Skommarbo and Raby: training courses).

Legs, abs, arms

Warm up and cool down, to and from interval location; stig och skog (trails and forest). A bit humid today, threat of rain (threat realized half-way through interval training). Thus, a bit slippery.

8 sets of forest intervals: 2:20 with 40 sec rest. Terrain mixture of white forest, blueberries, rock and grassy marsh. I think the distance of the loop was 460meters. No major hills, just rolling terrain. Required concentration on foot placement, particularly after the rain started.
