| weight:61.7kg shoes: Saucony Triumph |
| Run along the river and canal in the cold rain (3 degrees - brrrrrr) to fetch my car from the station. Legs very heavy and tired. Very muddy and slippery on the river path. |
Friday Dec 7 |
| Salsa (Social) 1:30:00 [3] | |
| shoes: Dancing Shoes |
| Work team outing in Edinburgh. Ended up in salsa club and gave it the full effort on the dance floor - excellent fun. |
Thursday Dec 6 |
| Yoga 1:00:00 [1] | |
| shoes: Bare feet |
| This activity pretty much finished me off! Managed to fall asleep and woke up not knowing which way round I was - weird. |
Wednesday Dec 5 |
| Triathlon (Mini) 1:25:32 [5] 19.8 km (4:19 / km) | |
| shoes: Saucony Omni |
| 400m swim (10.38), 15.2km cycle (46.14) and 4.2km run (28.42). Paced myself well on the swim and the bike was ok but too slow. Bum and thighs were agony when I started the run but dug in and kept going. Chuffed to bits that I did it and didn't collapse in a heap at the finish. |
| Pilates 1:00:00 [1] | |
| shoes: Bare feet |
| Far too sore to do it properly! |
| Tennis 1:30:00 [3] | |
| shoes: Saucony Omni |
| Fun game of tennis with Kate, Ross and Jon. Kate was the star player of the matches although she had an advantage as she'd had some sneaky lessons earlier in the week! The major challenge afterwards was to retrieve a ball, which had lodged on a 12ft wall, this involved some acrobatic antics - honestly the lengths you have to go to to get a ball back! |
Tuesday Dec 4 |
| Run hills (Terrain) 1:52:00 [3] 13 km (8:37 / km) | |
| shoes: Saucony Omni |
| Wow! Pre- breakfast long slow run up the volcano. Scary holding onto the side and scrambling up to the top but absolutely worth it. Not every day you get to mince down a volcano - fantastic. |
| Body Toning 1:00:00 [2] | |

| Orienteering race (Street O) 16:34 [5] 1.7 km (9:45 / km) | |
| shoes: Saucony Omni |
| Street O style orienteering round La Santa complex much to the amusement of passers by! Almost came to grief running through the pool bar and just stopped in time to let a waitress deliver two large plates of food! Slipped on the "lawn" and gave myself a nasty bruise to add to the collection. Quite a few blunders and hesitations but altogether an ok result! |
Monday Dec 3 |
| Cycling race (Road bike) 45:00 [4] 15 km (3:00 / km) | |
| shoes: Saucony Omni |
| Duathlon team with Lou. 2nd place team. I was crap on the bike, Louise excelled herself and over-took Kate on the track in a race for the finish - good effort. |
| Stretch and Relax 1:00:00 [1] | |

| |
| Aquathlon (Swim/Run) 23:44 [5] | |
