Rolling/Stretching 20:00 [1]
shoes: Brooks Mazama
Keeping up the rolling/stretching routine L shin feels good might do a short run tomorrow just to gauge how hard I can go at the weekend aswell as whether I have recovered.
8 AM
Running (TRAIL) 53:31 10.23 km (5:14 / km) +274m 4:37 / km
ahr:124 max:172 (injured) shoes: Brooks Mazama
First run in 12 days, testing how my L shin feels. The route covers road, trails, hills and descents so was able to see what caused trouble for my shin. However, L shin felt great and my calf was no longer weak only problem being my knees which need to get used to running again.
Also don't want to mark it as recovered as not 100% that it has.

(injured)
Prep for my "test" run tomorrow. Going to try and cover a series of terrains and gradients as well as paces. Hopefully will find some limits and answer the big question whether I can start training.
1 PM
Cycling (MTB) 45:33
14.1km 176m
Slow but good fun to finally get some exercise. I find that MTB is a bit harsh on my shin however it feels fine except when I apply reasonable pressure. Tomorrow will be the first run I've done in 12 days so pretty excited hopefully it goes well.

(injured) (rest day)
Woke up and my body just needed more rest so forced to have a second day of no exercise as well as school work playing a factor. However, don't want to call it too soon but my shin is feeling really good. Will either do a jog/walk or a xc ride tomorrow to give a more comprehensive verdict.

8 AM
Cycling (ROAD) 2:22:21 [3]
63.4km 653m 26.7km/h
Good fun being back on the road bike, however the wind, rain and mud did it's best to ruin the ride. Was riding really safe as the mud was like ice on a couple of the lanes and i didn't want another puncture. My route was mainly flat and on slightly larger roads which lead to a couple of close calls with cars taking no prisoners. Towards the end had planned to do an extra loop to bring the ride up to 70km but on a descent a gust of wind almost made me crash so cut my losses and headed home.

Shin still feeling better but after my ride today decided I need some more time off running. Fixed my puncture so can hopefully go on a longer spin tomorrow. Thinking about not running for another 7 days so that I can do some solid training at the BOF camp.
11 AM
Cycling (MTB) 1:30:00 [1]
Out from 11 till 2 but only about half was actually worth calling training. Good fun, sent some solid jumps but holding back a bit as I'm only just coming out of an injury.

(rest day)
Injury feels better, got only one lesson tomorrow so going mtb for a few hours and hopefully get solid amount laps in at Harpford. Might try and extend the ride there and back so it's more beneficial. Also not going to run till Sunday to extend my rest to 10 days of no running.
