Training Log Archive: heyU

am: Regular Sunday ride out into the Swan Valley. As far as the Mallard Duck Cafe again and, like last time I did this ride, with a southerly wind so ntb along Mounts Bay and Riverside Dr. Coped with it a bit better than last time and wasn't as tired at the end. 4 min faster :-)

am: Wembley Downs ride. Didn't have time this morning to explore any other ways to extend the ride (i.e. didn't get out of bed early enough).

am: Claremont ride without the lap of Kings Pk at the end.

pm: At SportsMed Subi

am: Run in Kings Pk. A bit shorter than last time so that I didn't irritate the right groin too much. Was OK, slowly tightening up from about 18 min onwards, but never became a real problem. Probably finished at just about the right time, though. Any longer and it prob would have become uncomfortable.

am: Ride to UWA and out to Dalkeith and back.

am: Usual easy Tues ride down to Tawarri and back. Quite warm already at 7am.

pm: Usual stuff at SportsMed Subi.

am: A bit apprehensive about running today after the right groin started playing up in the last run, but I figured I needed to find out how far I could go before it started to become a problem. Tried to run a bit slower also, to see if that would have an effect. Right groin started to tighten up after about 20min, nothing much at first, but enough to let me know it was going to be an issue. Gradually became more noticable until it started to become uncomfortable at about the 32 min mark. Stopped to stretch a couple of times and that seemed to help (for a short time). Kept running until I was a few hundred metres from home. Wasn't too bad afterwards so I suppose I can continue to run with it, but will definitely have to be careful.
