Running (Terrain running) 1:13:29 [3] 11.2 km (6:34 / km)

am: Run at South Ledge. It was warm and humid and there wasn't much of a breeze (~20 degrees overnight at Bickley - a relatively warm night for the Perth hills). As a result it seemed a bit harder and took longer than last time. Tweaked my dodgy right ankle a couple of times. Hard enough to hurt and make me hesitant, but no significant damage.
No snake sightings as yet this summer. I was half expecting to see one today, but it was not to be. I'm sure that I'll see one before the end though. South Ledge is a good spot for them. Especially in the rocky sections :-)

Running 30:03 [3] 6.5 km (4:37 / km)

am: Nice relaxed run in Kings Pk. Partly cloudy so I really didn't get much of a chance to work on my tan :-)

Gym 1:28:00 [2]
weight:73.9kg

md: Another big session at Fuller fitness. Includes about 17min of simulated mountain climbing on the bike (was out of the saddle much of the time).

The music wasn't pumping today. A full quota of buff gym junkies and beefy guys pumping iron though. The ambience at this place (imagine loud music, dark interior design, big TV screens, and banks of exercise machines) is in complete contrast to Sportsmed Subi (imagine small gym, clinical atmosphere, light colour scheme, people doing rehab after surgery or recovering from injury, physios treating patients).

It's been interesting but I don't think I'll be going back for a while.

Core stability 23:00 [1]

pm: I actually did do the rest of yesterday's session

pm: A token effort. Could hardly be bothered, but I'm going to log it anyway

ahr:130 max:146

am: Sore in the butt this morning! Waddled the first few km and was slow to get going. Last 2k was pretty good though.
Not sure why I'm so sore. It's been building up over the last few days. Haven't been doing anything too different to normal. Sitting for long periods is a pain at the moment.

pm: Part of the old core and postural
