Training Log Archive: fell

Had my appointment with the physio;
no running for a few meeks (it may be only a fortnight if I heal quickly enough).

Really bad ITBS; I hadn't noticed, but my knee is actually swollen.
and Really bad LTF
She said this was because my glutes were pretty lazy and I had be putting all the work onto the LTF (particularly the right one).

so icing, stretching, Pool work, and riding for the next fortnight....

Event: Snow Treble
 

went for a slow jog around mt. ainslie with greg; intended to be about 50 minutes, but the ITB kicked in straight away.

short lazy bike ride after work too loosen everything up.

Easter day 3

I don't think 'collector hill' has too much going for it.

Took my local pharmacists advice and had some painkillers before the start. Made it about halfway around before ITB was really noticeable.
I think I know that hill too well now to ever justifying coming back to the map.

Despite, illness, injury, and related unfitness, still felt like I had the legs in me a bit coming into the spectator area / last quarter of the course.

A few navigational wobbles out there - as to be expected for first course since November?
Was reasonably satisfied with my time. Think without injury I could have easily been 10minutes faster; and that would have put me in the pack (faster with some training!).
So still some hope!
