| Note | |
| |
| Another big session of gardening work in the afternoon. Shovelling, pruning, sweeping, carting bucket loads of crap. Loads of fun. If I logged all the garden work as training I'd be close to the top of the tree :-) |
Thursday May 17 |
| Running 58:42 [3]13.1 km (4:29 / km) | |
| |
| am: Steady run in Kings Pk. Became a bit of a struggle towards the end. Quite heavy in the legs, possibly because of the obscene amount of garden work I've been doing over the last few days. Right glutes still complaining a bit :-( |
| Gym 47:00 [2] | |
| weight:73.6kg |
| pm: Usual gym session (upper body and core stability) |
| Note | |
| |
| Had a massage at lunch time. Included some dry needling for the right gluteus medius, which seemed to help loosen it up a bit. Also noticed that I was as sore as shit on the lower ITB (both sides). This is new, and I guess it's got a lot to do with the garden work (all that lovely shovelling) |
Wednesday May 16 |
| Running 53:02 [3]11.5 km (4:37 / km) | |

| Note | |
| |
| Still extracting the timber from my legs after running in that mongrel area on Sunday. Some of the thorns were up to 5mm !!! I reckon it'll take another week before the're all out. |
