Note
Just couldn't really be bothered to do anything today, so I didn't. We couldn't even go State Parking because the car was leaking coolant, so we stayed at home.

(rest day)
Spent most of the day in the garden with my new veg boxes, now full of compost. Excellent.

Running 40:06 7.02 km (5:43 / km) +70m 5:26 / km
ahr:162 max:188 shoes: Pink cohesions
Run to Cross Fit with 4 x quarter mile efforts. First was awful, next were a bit easier. A long long way to go.
Cross Fit 1:06:15 0.7 km (1:35:11 / km) +2m 1:33:50 / km

Only three of us there for the 9 o clock this time. Rob got lots of coaching on his squat from Dan and we had a good chat at the end. Should probably have skipped the chat to go straight to work, but ho hum.

More snow showers for the weekend? Meh! The training weekend is finally creeping onto the ten day forecast though - looking good this far out!
Also, the Saturday of the training weekend will mark three years in CT for me. Time flies! Almost my third anniversary of meeting Ian and Lori! Which also means almost three years since SGB and Lori got together.

Running 40:11 6.74 km (5:57 / km) +101m 5:33 / km
ahr:156 max:169 shoes: Pink cohesions
Rob dropped me off and I ran through East Rock. I was hungry but not dizzy hungry, which is quite a feat for me. I have forgotten how long it takes me to get everywhere in East Rock, so I gypped myself a bit and had to do an extra loop round Spring Glen. Next time I will stick to the outer path - plenty of time! Lovely sunny evening but seriously chill wind - needed gloves. There's some really grim patches of storm damage on the trails to the east of the summit.

Cross Fit 49:08
ahr:126 max:182
First part of today's WOD. Some timed heavy push presses, burpee box jumps, burpee pull ups and planks. Not to difficult. 3 x 1 minute planks are a lot easier than they used to be. It's all about counting really slowly.
Running 40:45 6.78 km (6:00 / km) +147m 5:25 / km
ahr:159 max:192 shoes: Pink cohesions
Changed in to trainers and jogged to Endurance with Dan G. Session was a time trial up the Quinnipiac Hill. I could feel the burpees in my quads the whole time but I was almost a minute faster than anyone else in 5.05. I need Scott to stop taking his children to basketball practice and come run with me! This was the hardest I have run in a while, as evidenced by the max HR.
Cross Fit 10:09
ahr:92 max:110
Then finished today's WOD and stretched out afterwards. 30 balls slams (10#), 40 cals on the Airdyne, 50 double unders. They were pretty hard after all that, I was doing double single double single and still only getting 8 or so without whipping my arms. Happy to have had a good evening's training though, after feeling fed up and dreadful when I woke up. Hopefully I am over the worst of the sugar/simple carb withdrawal (4 days now).

Yey rain! The enormous lump in our garden has decreased in size by about half this morning. Whoo!
10 AM
Running 46:13 7.57 km (6:06 / km) +130m 5:37 / km
ahr:162 max:176 shoes: Pink cohesions
Jog in in the pissing rain. It was a bit too soon after breakfast (I had a very slow start today) for anything fast, but I enjoyed the conditions, reminding me of home. Snow is now pretty much gone. Wahey!

Running 40:07 7.18 km (5:35 / km) +134m 5:07 / km
ahr:164 max:179 shoes: Pink cohesions
An almost entirely snow-less run! Whoopee! My legs were really tired from all the stomping this weekend but it was fun to be able to run properly.
6 PM
Cross Fit 1:08:31
ahr:122 max:177
Cross Fit! Started with some heavyish front squats, then 15 min AMRAP of 6 DB Thrusters, 6 strict pull ups (bands), 6 wall balls and 6 DB rows. Not the most exciting but all good stuff.
