at moore park.
was not at all in the mood to run. not that i ever am lately. started off ok though, but i never really got into it. then i did stupid stuff like start going to 12 from 10 because i didnt connect 11 up when i drew lines and wasnt really paying enough attention. having difficulties running lately so i might stop eating wheat again for a while and see if that makes a difference, because ive been feeling pretty crappy lately. probs should stop working so much as well, although thats not really feasible, cuz its probs partially why im always so tired.

was planning on doing 400s in the park, but i forgot it was a saturday so there were heaps of people and i didnt feel like dodging little kids so i did hills instead.
7 x ~80m hill reps. i felt really heavy. meant to do 8 but i was dead after about 3, but i managed 7.

3k warm up
3k warm down.

felt sooooo tight after my run today. so i stretched a lot. feel slightly better, probs need to do another half an hour or so of stretching though. and need to do it everyday probs.

realised i haven't been riding for ages so i figured i'd ride instead of run today, particularly since i'm so tired and sick feeling. out via indro, back through tennyson, yeronga, dutton park across to the uni, around the uni past ironside state school, along swann rd, clarence rd (max 67 km/h down there :) it was fun), across the bridge home along laurel avenue.

pretty easy run this morning. i think im getting sick :(

lasted half an hour in my stats lecture today. sooooo boring. ran around the uni for a while until i got bored. then i went to the library and now i have a big stack of books for my sociology assignment. how fun. at least its a vaguely interesting topic.

work was terrible today. lots of things going wrong. so by the time i got home i wasn't in a good mood and didn't really feel like going running at all. so at least motivationally i seem to be going ok at the moment, since i did anyway. just did my 5k loop that goes towards indro (so the flatter one..i have two 5k loops). kinda died a bit around the 3.5k mark but i picked it up again.

intervals at uni around the footy oval next to the track.
~10 minutes warm up

1,2,3,2,1 with 1 easy lap in between each set.

1 - 1:26 (ok i guess)
2 - 3:02 (not so good)
3 - 5:57 (pretty crap)
2 - 3:12 (also pretty crap)
1 - 1:15 (yay)

pretty happy with the last one, but i still think i could've pushed myself more, cuz i wasn't really that dead at the end. tired tho. sleep deprived tired not running tired.

two slow laps at the end to warm down.
