| Unfortunately not possibe to train today.
Work v early (as the rest of this week) and jumping on a train to london in afternoon. Doubt i'll geta chance to do anything down there over the few days either. Hopefully at least use the downtime on the train to think about a fresh diet / training plan etc (My Fruit smoothie shop owner friend has been championing the benefits of whey protein recently) | ||
Wednesday Apr 30 | ||
| Cycle 15:00 [3] | |
| ahr:130 max:156 slept:7.0 | ||
| Cycle to work, trying to sit back, (go easy) but that's not so simple to do going up dundas street.
Probability of getting rained on day looks quite high... doh Time to un-tick that 'sick' box maybe. | ||

| ahr:160 max:168 rhr:56 slept:6.5 shoes: Brooks Vapour | ||
| Two Sprint training courses planned by Andrew.
Long route choice legs each followed by quick series of short legs. Idea was to try to plan route and flow of short series during the preceeding long leg. Concentration started to go a bit on second course. About 16mins each. Had monitor set for max 155, was holding back but felt like my body just wanted to go faster, (so the monitor ended up beeping at me a bit). | ||
| Cycle 21:00 [2]4.8 mi (4:22 / mi) | |
| ahr:128 | ||
| Home from Lauriston.
Missed a turn to go through Drylaw so ended up going though Silverknowles and back onto Ferry Road before joining cycle path. http://www.sanoodi.com/route/quirkey/145983/cycle-... | ||

| Had thought my running gear might be coming out after a v. stressy meeting for a mid afternoon anger blast. Meeting turned out ok so hung on to run in the evening.
Decided i'd run from the office to meadows, did a lap and a bit looking out for folk i recognised taking part in the intervals session. Not many there i recognised bar a few Ed Uni Orienteers. Suspect people are saving themselves for start of the 3 chimneys series tomorrow (aka shri chimnoy, or whatever). Anyway jog back to office, picked up my bag and ran home. http://www.sanoodi.com/route/quirkey/145813/meadow... Quads still a bit sore. | ||
| Core: Stability/Balance 10:00 [4] | |
| Been a while.....
after just 20 straight crunches and i was tired. after a measely 20 push ups, completely knackered. other stuff too of course Q. Who took my (almost) athletic body and replaced it with this dud? Can I have the old one back please? | ||
| Stretching 10:00 [1] | |
Monday Apr 28 | ||
| Note | |
| Had planned to go out for an evening run.
Hovever I got to work and discovered i had sports massage booked after work. Not enough time to run post work before the appointment, and obviously it wasnt going to happen afterwards. Have apparently tightened up a lot whilst sick etc. (probably because most stretching happens around training ... which wasnt happening) Still a lot of scar tissue around site of previous broken ribs (>6mnths ago!) Tired quite quickly once i got home. | ||
