3C. L knee pretty painful today - has been since the Newton PS AC session yesterday afternoon, alas. Back out with the anti-inflammatories.

Today's lunchtime spin wouldn't have happened if Jase hadn't tempted me away from the huge mound of work on my desk! Fresh air is always so good for the stress levels - glad I got out. TRIMP 66.6.

Lunchtime bimble. Hurray for easy weeks - very much enjoying my gentle pootles in the sunshine. TRIMP 66.4.

Headed straight up onto the muir and the glorious lunchtime sunshine. Wonderful views! Legs feeling great; L knee still swollen, though, so, no heroics. TRIMP 91.2.

Recovery spin on Bertha. I really need to get the old gal serviced! My legs were feeling surprisingly fine - I was just short of time today. I think that I'll stick to spinning for a while, as my feet are pretty bashed up. TRIMP 49.2.

Travelling home. Strangely I didn't feel too motivated to do any further exercise. Lovely raw shoulders and 50p raw blister on my R heel, ow.

LAMM D course, day 2, part 1.
I really hadn't expected to be able to get moving today but had slept well and felt reasonably recovered, so, when the word came that the C and D courses were actually going to have a two-part race today, with a bus along the road, I was confident that we'd make it after all. And, as it turned out, we were actually moving alright. We had a couple of misses in the early clag, dropping maybe 10 minutes in total, which was disconcerting as D4 were starting only 5 minutes after us, but in the end we never saw them and indeed ran away from them, it seems.
The legs were tiring a little before we got to the buses, so we dropped down to the road for the last km, and made the most of the opportunity to rest and dunk in the river before getting on the bus. TRIMP 251.4.

LAMM D course day 2, part 2. Bus drop off to the finish. The breather was great, but did mean that we'd stiffened up a little, and we were both toiling on the last climb up and over the hill, but we were then pretty strong to the finish. Maintained our 3rd place and 1st vets, although the vets prize went to the second placed vets as we couldn't win both that and 3rd overall. Decent run today, only 10 mins down on the fastest, which was gratifying, particuarly given how beaten I felt last night. Jase was a rock all event. TRIMP 96.5.
A brilliant event, and a fitting one for the LAMM to bow out on; we felt privileged to be a part of it. Very sociable afterwards :-).
