Cycling (commute) 25:00 [2] 3.6 km (6:57 / km)
shoes: (Bike) Specialized Hardrock
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 :(
Cycling 20:00 [3] 4 km (5:00 / km)
shoes: (Bike) Specialized Hardrock
not as exciting as the journey in to work

off to BOC now :D

Thursday Apr 17

Cycling 20:00 [1] 3.6 km (5:33 / km)

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.
Note
changed name on here to andrewd, just to confuse people

Note
had to run for the bus this morning, calf felt fine.

lots of mutterings about people heading to tentsmuir, gutted I couldn't get my session in there on Sunday :(

spiked:15/15c shoes: Asics Gel Kayano
http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=1802821

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)
shoes: (Bike) Specialized Hardrock
'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)
