Training Log Archive: T - runner

Was actually 1.30, but logging that much feels like cheating. Up Te Mata Peak with my brother, and down the goat track, post birthday party.

Day used up by a four hour lunch at Blackbarn and my and my flatmates combined birthday/flatwarming. The perils of living in Hawkes Bay.

Just didn't happen, which was a bit lame.

30x 30s intervals. Undulating around the lower parts of Te Mata Peak, managed to escape during the day for a while before long day again.

Warm up 10mins, warm down 20mins at Te Mata Peak - nice day and I had the time, so had a good warm down and then stretching.

A whole day off! So went for a ride from home out along Prebensen Drive, round the back of Park Island, and up to Poriati, where I explored most of the dead end roads. Pretty hot, fairly low intensity, as I had to stop a few times to get stones off my tires - the tar was all melting and sticky. Came back via the supermarket.

Escaped from work at 9am by virtue of having no patients until next Tuesday, so ran from home up around the expensive parts of Bluff Hill, found Sturm's Valley, back to the top again, then down and back up the steps on Shakespeare Rd and around and down Milton Rd. Got relatively lost a few times, feeling right hamstring and achilles a little bit towards the end. Only bad bit about today was having to go back to work at 4pm for the 4-11pm bit:(

C • no patients 2

Seems ridiculous to log this as four separate rides, so: from my place to soccer, soccer to Helen's, Helen's back to soccer, then home from soccer with my bike and Rory's - quite challenging, especially cornering on the way home, so that trip took about twice as long as usual, but the first three trips were at quite a good pace.

Game one: won 30-6, played most of the game - only one sub. Fun times.

Game two: post lasagne, and we got smashed 32-7. Fun game though, up until Rory tore his calf muscle right near the end.
