putting some mud on new fluoro nike lunareclipses

Friday swimming - my paddle steamer stroke was so bad I had to do some special exercises. then jess got the rubber bands out for 4 laps of scraping toes along the bottom.

went for a massage this morning - the massage guy thought that there wasn't much flexibility in my back so have stretches to do. hopefully trogging them will remind me to do them

Only nat, mace and a novice at bilbys tonight as everyone else had gone to the vets track session with gary. The set was 8x1km, my legs were a bit sore and this showed in the splits of 3.45, 3.47, 3.50, 5.52, 3.56, 3.56, 3.55, 3.51. I was running the last two on my own so it was good that mace kept telling me to keep the speed up.

Warm up ably and efficiently led by nat and a lonely big lap at the end.

Stromlo summer series. Hadn't run on this map before and found it hard going underfoot with the carpet of brambles and general ruttedness. Good duel with tom landon smith although a few little mistakes from me meant he finished in front.

classic ss warmup of run to start, jog around the crossy track after with sanders

Lots of people at the bilbys tonight, mace, sanders, rohan, eon. As we were in the middle of the stretches, grantm turned up, feeling the need to lift his training to the next level after only trogging two sessions today.
Stuck to gary's warmup which has less messing about in it than the other ones on offer tonight. Tired big lap at the end.

Intervals were 6x800 then 6x400 with a walk recovery. 2.55 to 3.00 for the 800s and 1.30 to 1.24 for the 400s

The cockies long run with grant, grantm, miss jones, sanders, marli and robw- which was more of a recovery shuffle with grant and miss jones also suffering from the 3 peaks and sanders back from a rogaine. Grantm didn't seem to be suffering any ill effects from the 3 peaks and was doing quite a lot of surging and doubling back to pick the rest of us up. We went round the base of ainslie, into campbell park and back over the saddle and hackett hill. Legs began to feel a bit better towards the end of the run but was glad not to be going up any big hills. Large packs of bilbys were spotted circling ainslie.
To deli marco after, we searched for the sleeper, but they've all been identified and expunged from the menu.
