Friday Feb 8 |
 | Note | |
| slept:7.0 (rest day) |
| Rest is not what i want to do. Just an err of care not to build up training too quickly. Busy weekend ahead. Testing some world schools courses tomorrow, and possiby gym after that ... maybe. Sunday's looking like needing most of the day out NPHs way .... hopefully ok weather so i can finally get on with tagging control sites. |
Thursday Feb 7 |
 | Yoga ('Power' Yoga AM class) 1:00:00 [2] | |
| shoes: Bare Feet / Socks |
| Ommmmm .... relaxed now
(the class doesnt even have any omm-ing so no idea why i needed to write that)
Three styles in one class, interesting.
Felt like a contortionist compared to some folk in the class. Hip flexors definitely not good though.
Have now found a decent upper back stretch. |
 | Note | |
| |
| 90 min Sports Massage (after work). Legs aparently in good nick.
Still lots of scar tissue in and surrounding the area of previously broken ribs tho. Breathing has been restricted without me realising, but then i've not really pushed my limits for a while. Got some exercises to do to try to help the healing along. |
Wednesday Feb 6 |
 | Cycle 25:00 [3] | |
| |
| From work out to O training at Corstorphine Hill |
 | Orienteering 30:00 [2] *** | |
| |
| Control hanging. Dang, Corstorphine is tricky !!!
Job made easier with help from Heather, and leaving my bag in her car. |
 | Orienteering 45:00 [2] *** 2.6 km (17:18 / km) | |
| shoes: Brooks Vapour |
| Went out last, with Mark, collecting controls on the way.
We had to hold back a bit to make sure we didnt pick controls up before everyone visited them.
We all decided that two of the controls were in the wrong places .... but i had given everyone prior warning at least.
Most agreed that trying to do map memory on Corstorphine was a very tough challenge ... but then that's most of the point of training .... challenge, progression, results |
 | Cycle 20:00 [3] | |
| |
| Home from O training..... Burrrr... Cold after standing around talking |
 | Stretching 10:00 [1] | |
| |
| Once home and warm.
(stretches at o training not worth counting) |
Tuesday Feb 5 |
 | Stretching 10:00 [1] | |
| |
| Am. Half awake etc.
Wonder if Jane knows any other glute stretches ....
Or maybe i could just stretch more often .... then there's that Yoga notion too.
Still very happy to be back training. Some kind of soothing for the soul or something .... or it's at least eating away those stress hormones anyhow ....munch munch munch |
Monday Feb 4 |

| |
| Was meant to get up for AM bodypump, but slept through the alarm .. doh.
Hopefully get to the gym tonight instead then.
There just has to a way of getting a decent stretch on gluteals.
Joints clicking all over the place this morning. I felt like a human percussion instrument in a modern jazz suite.
