| Part way with Lakemont BC. Legs feeling much better today but still not springy, but at least they feel like they are screwed on now. East lake. |
| Swim 40:00 [2] | |

| At the Y. Two swims in a week, must be a new record for me. Used the flippers for a bit to stop the shoulder getting too sore, holding up well at the moment and no grief from it under normal motions. |

| Ball-bagged, can't get enough sleep and am waking up with no energy. I need a 10 hr sleep but don't know where to find one...result is a drive to work and most likely nothing at lunchtime except maybe a snooze. |

| Swim at the Y. First one in months since I hurt my shoulder in Hawaii in April. Felt quite nice really and a good change from being on my feet for days. No shoulder issues either. |

| rhr:42 slept:9.0 weight:163lbs (injured) (rest day) |
| Rested today after the MAR. Ass hurts like crazy and feet are tingling. Big tonail is black and oozing pus, yuk! Slept like a log last night and doing jack today. Tanya is feeding me some great food again after the bars and junk I ate throughout the race. (Not included in this statement is the food from the support crew which was great and tasted super!)
Not doing another race like this for a while but I was determined to finish this one at any cost to the body.
PQ may be at this location next year - you have been warned, it is hard...
Weight is low and my body fat reading nearly 20% so the machine must be confused since I am damn skinny and marginally ripped right now after the last few days. |
