At GK, with Jason. Testing the hip, which was pretty much sore the whole time, but that was expected. Tested a little terrain running in woods in the last part of the run. Have to concentrate on foot placement.

To and from Slottskogen via Chalmers

Jogging the second half of the training we had a few weeks ago. Hip is okay now when walking, but hurt as soon as I started jogging, so took it easy. Into the detail of the map much better this time around.

Warm up to start of interval loop, and cool down after last intervals, back to club-hosue. Hip rather sore on cool down. Lots of stretching afterwards before Tiomila meeting. BenGay tonight...

Interval training with Jenny J, Annica, Tiina, Lotta and Karin N. (and a few of the boys). Ladder (x2). 1 min, 2min, 3min, 2min, 1 min (with 1 min rest in between). 2 min rest before second session. Then 5 min jog before 4 sets of 15 sec pick-ups with 30 min jog in between.

We did this on part of the 10km trail loop (rolling hills). I was the only one with a watch, so I had to shout out start and stop times, which was actually training to maintain focus (keeping track of time, as I just used running watch instead of starting and stopping each time) and also incentive to try to stay near-ish Jenny or at least in middle so that everyone could hear me when I shouted (sometimes feeblely) STOP. Felt dead tired after teh first 3 min (maybe too hard on the first 1 and 2 min), but managed to stay with or in front of our group, save Jenny, who is speedy! It was cold today too - certainly coldest training day in a while. Great workout - everyone did a great job and spirit was great. Tweeked ankle (R) on the 5 min jog before pick-ups, so these were a little slower, but seemed okay. Hip is more painful that ankle. Time to get back on the balance board!

Busy writing day, and legs and ankle recovering from weekend.
