| |
| Jav warm up |
| athletics (javelin) 1:00:00 [3] | |
| |
| Javelin technical work. One of the parents had a camera and was taking stills in quick succession which was really useful - I saw that I'm not keeping the javelin straight on the run up then releasing it too much out to the right - definitely something to go back and work on. |
| athletics warm up/down 10:00 [2] | |
| |
| Warm up again for high jump following lunch break.
|
| athletics (high jump) 15:00 [3] | |
| |
| First time high jumping since injury. Ran round curve a few times. 5 stride popups onto bed, couple of scissors and about 6 flops over 1.30-1.40, didn't want to push it too much. Feels fine after but was slightly achy at the time towards the end.
|
| strength/conditioning 30:00 [3] | |
| |
| Some strength/conditioning work with Dale and the high jump group. Pushing up onto box from bent knee, from in front and side. Didn't do the jumping one! Lunges with 2x5kg hand weights 'round the clock' was quite a good one. |
| Note | |
| |
| SW Athletics squad final training session. Unfortunately Emma wasn't there - had wanted to speak to her about the combined events. Spoke to Richard and I'm welcome to go back next year as an U23. |

| Note | |
| (injured) |
| Saw Chris at physio - although I thought everything was going pretty well, he did point out a lot of stuff I still really can't do - hopping on one leg, squatting etc. He doesn't want me to start really training properly until I'm balanced again. Need to get a trampette.
He's happy for me to try and jog round the British but less happy about getting back to athletics. English Schools Heptathlon in September is a bit iffy he reckons, and the qualifiers in June are a definite no-no... I guess I kinda knew it before but its hard to be told that - thats my last English Schools out the window then. Will just have to occupy myself elsewhere for this season, throwing and orienteering are alright at least but still pretty gutted. |

Winner did 18 min, reckon I would've been 22-23 on a good day, so not actually too far down... |

Sunday Mar 9 |
| Note | |
| |
| Went to SARUM national and just hanging around all day talking to people. Nice to see people and get some fresh air, until it started hailing! Ankle felt alright, was walking freely on slightly rough stuff, broke out into a short jog on paths from time to time. |
Tuesday Mar 4 |
| running 2:00 [2] 0.4 km (5:00 / km) | |

| |
| athletics (javelin) 40:00 [3] | |

| Threw lots of javelin - standing throws but felt good, really nice to do a proper athleticsy thing again, and was throwing quite well aswell. Upper body strength has improved over the last few months I'm sure. |
| strength/conditioning (medicine ball) 20:00 [3] | |
| |
| All fine - no limitations really other than one that involved jumping. |

Monday Mar 3 |
| Note | |
| |
| Well, it felt ok at the time yesterday but quite achy today, maybe I'm not as fine as I hoped... |
Sunday Mar 2 |
| running 5:11 [4] 1 km (5:11 / km) | |
| |
| I can run! I can actually properly run! Just went out for 5 mins down the lane and barely even felt restricted - was so much better than I expected it to be... |
