Today I did lots of useful stuff round the house and pretty much no exercise. It was actually very pleasant.

Bring a friend day! Rob and I have no friends, so we paired up. Some strength stuff first, split squats and toes to bar, then a really fun workout. Increasing in 10s of clean & jerks, Sumo deadlift high pulls, power snatch, box jumps, goblet squats, burpees, kettle bell swings, lunges, sit ups, double unders between you. We had to use the Rx weight of kettle bell because so many turned up, so Rob did extra swings while I did extra sit ups and lunges. It was really fun. 23.44 for it all.

Such a glorious day and I absolutely had to go food shopping, so stopped at Racebrook Tract for a quick easy run on the way. Seriously warm and sunny, but a few too many dogs.
The food shops were crazy - I had to queue for a space in the Whole Foods car park and Trader Joe's was epically horrible. Are people shopping early for Thanksgiving or something? Certainly not the weird lady next to me who bought 8 packets of swordfish, 4 bags of brown pasta and 2 cartons of fish stock. Mmmmmmm....meals at her house must be fun! Or maybe she really likes her cats?
I know Trader Joe's do 50% of their business at weekends but still, it was grim. Huge accident on the 15 on the way home, luckily my phone warned me and I went back the other way.

(rest day)
Rest day. I used up all my infected neurons, and the next batch isn't ready till Monday. So at least I get the weekend off. Yey!

Want to leave work. Can't. Only have myself to blame after excessive kitchen tidying was more appealing than running to work this morning. Will be very happy to reach about 6pm tomorrow. What a week!

Finally got it together to run into work. Felt better than I anticipated, but not sprightly.

Cycling 30:00 [2]
Power cycle. My brakes have now screwed up to an unfixable level, so I need to try to go to a bike shop. But they are open at silly times. So I pushed against my brakes pads the whole way. Great for the bike, I'm sure.
I want to tell scary Russian Man that JJ is absolutely right in the money for orienteering thread, but he is too scary. Go JJ!

Very tired today so did the Function workout as a recovery type effort rather than all out. 3 5 min AMRAPs of airdyne, kettlebell swings and burpees. Today was the first time I felt particularly lacking in the glycogen store area. Still pushed through and was consistent if not energetic.

Ran into work! Fun at that time in the morning, and beat the enormous temperature drop. Worked from 6am till 6pm. Totally whacked now. It was hopefully very productive, but I'll find out tomorrow.

Looks like I forgot to start my watch but managed to record the trip here. We did back squats, then technique practice on clean squat jerks, then a super intense ring row and box jump short finale. Good to start the day with a workout because work was non stop (but productive).
