 | Running 35:00 [3] | |

| Running at Churchill Park and Princess Point. Tried some off trail. Dull ache in ankle. Ran today post Vitamin I. Now I know why Ted's bro sings "Motrin is my friend". |

| Running 50:00 [3] | |
| |
| Easy run with speed work in the middle (1 on, 2 off x 5) with Sudden at Churchill/Princess Point. Didn't feel 'fluid' yet but the running wasn't as painful so I'll take it for now. |
Sunday Aug 29 |
| Running 40:00 [3] | |
| |
| Running on grass at Churchill Park. Dull pain in left knee with brace on but hurt on downhills. BUT this is probably good news. Threw in a few sprints. WIll try forest running on Wed. so WOC is a go (the relay at least). |

| Skiing 1:15:00 [2] | |
| (injured) |
| Roller skiing with Sudden, Etoile, Suddenfru, Emmanator, and Isak on Waterfront trail. Ankle fine afterwards, knee very sore. Good workout considering I can't run or bike at the moment. |
| Running 15:00 [2] | |
| |
| Test run in Churchill Park with new knee strap. Unbearable pain without the strap and dull pain with the strap. Certainly helps so hopefully I can still run WOC. |

| A very painful 15 minute run in Churchill Park. Left knee kept locking. Conclusion: This ain't a niggly pain this is another (*&(&% injury! Suspected left knee medial meniscus tear. |

| (injured) |
| Re-injured ankle doing field work in Baie-Comeau. Training has been stopped until swelling goes down. Very frustrating to have this problem so close to WOC - especially when everything was going well. |

| Week summary for paddling in Killarney. At times easy and other times it was 'full-on' AR racing speed so we call it a 2 but took week's total for time and divided by 2.5. Treated this as training and not just a family outing. I hope I wasn't too intense. Took it easy on portages. |
| DWR 2:05:00 [4] | |
| |
| Week summary for Deep Water Running (DWR). Most was done with a float and consisted with 1.5 minutes on, 1.5 minutes off (some with Emma). Ankle hurt early - hence the float (SZ's advice). It was great to 'run' full out. Could have done more but didn't want to over do it. Ankle is injured still but I can train but still can't run on it (not until Sept). |

| Week total for core strength work. Ankle is getting stronger. |
