Training Log Archive: T - runner

Course 1 at Osgiliath - pretty long, but a cool course and I enjoyed it. Made a few small mistakes, mainly on bearings towards the end when I was getting a bit tired. Annoyingly, I slipped on a wet log and fell on my wrist yet again, and it hurt a lot at the time, and then all night afterwards - not a good sign...

Down to Island Bay, round the coast through Seatoun, Miramar Peninsula, and then round Oriental Parade as well and back via Adelaide Rd. Was mildly embarrased when I got passed by an old guy on a mountain bike near the end, until I saw the size of his calves (at least twice the size of mine, and all muscle...). Nice sunny morning - couldn't figure out why quite a few other cyclists were wearing arm warmers - it wasn't that cold.

C • that was me on the mtb bike 3

Run with Lizzie at Wilton Bush. Third day in a row of running and second of pretty hilly stuff, so more than I've done for a while, and consequently I was a bit slow going up them! Cool run, will have to go there again:)

Mt Alfred, Mt Vic pretty much the same as the last few times - felt better though, so something must be happening!

O in Karori, mostly round the streets, but a good course with some cool route choices utilising the tracks between streets (and of course the expected few "interesting" bits of mapping). Had tea away from the flat for the sixth night in a row...

Bike down Adelaide Rd, The Parade, round the bays all the way past Seatoun and the Miramar Peninsula, then back over the hill to Newtown and Berhampore. Then went round to Sarah's to plan next Wednesday's event.

Run with Lizzie from Vic to her house in Simla Crs, via the Botanic Gardens and Tinakori Hill - didn't even know there were tracks in some of those places, and it was a pretty cool run, although I struggled a bit at the ends of the uphills.
