| what a crock of sh*t
pissing down with rain so a bit miserable anyway pulling away from lights that have just gone to green and a guy (suit and briefcase) deciedes to amble, nay, crawl across the road while the red man was staring into his face. So I see him and decide not to ride through him, I'm nice like that, so I slow down and wobble a bit. bam. Taxi's mirror smashes into my handle bar / hand, so I glare at the guy in the suit, then make the taxi driver wind his window down and shout at him a bit, apparently he never saw the guy, he looks apologetic. Nothing is broken (except his mirror, haha) so I bugger off to work. Starting to hurt now though, typing is painful :( | ||

| lovely morning - if I'd had a heart rate monitor there'd have been a big spike near the end when a roadwork sign got blown over missing my front tyre by a very small margin, scary stuff. | ||

ESOC training, i planned. was a route choice exercise, pairs (or 3s) talking a lot about all route available and deciding together which way to go. Aim was to go slow and lots of thinking / map reading while moving at slow pace. Was a good session, especially with a semi-dodgy calf and BOC 3 days away! | ||

Tuesday Apr 15 | ||
| Cycling (commute) 25:00 [1] 4.5 km (5:33 / km) | ||
| (injured) shoes: (Bike) Specialized Hardrock | ||
| commute via Edin Council to shout at them for their incompetency - didn't feel calf but stretched it very well beforehand, will try a slightly more energetic ride home and then a jog tomorrow night at esoc training.
thinking the cause of the calf prob might have been excess cycling recently having not cycled for, ooh, 5 years or so. bits of muscles being used that haven't thought about doing anything for that long = *boom* | ||
| Cycling 30:00 [2] 9.6 km (3:07 / km) | ||

| 'Commute' home. was cruising as didn't want to push it, just wanting to test out the calf muscle on the bike, couldn't feel it all which is good - just got to try jogging on it now (tomorrow night)
