| Running 43:00 [4] | |
| Well this was meant to be a long run but it ended up not being all that long... the fact that i didn't eat anything this morning before i went plus i didn't warm up could have a little bit to do with it i guess but... not happy jan. had a stitch for the first 15-20 minutes and then it was sorta there but not there for the rest. just felt sluggish and tiiired. went indirectly to the lake then did the bridge loop and part of the way home - just couldn't make myself keep going :(
think i should have a rest day tomorrow maybe? it's so hard to plan the weeks training these days! i want to fit some hill intervals in coz i havent done any since... i dunno way back before musical i think... but with the two intervals sessions with gerard and events on the weekends and stuff it's tricky. if i do hills tomorrow then i'll be well and truly buggered for tuesdays intervals. | ||

| Running race (ACT X-country club race) 17:50 [5]4 km (4:28 / km) vdot: 43.2 | |
| quite hilly with a little bit of the course going through sand and then muddy ground making it a bit harder. got really tired towards the end. time seems pretty crap - went back to act cross country race and saw i got 16:41 - way faster, though a different course. wouldn't have thought having a bit more hills and rougher running surface would make such a big time difference. either i'm wrong or i just ran way slower. gah i'm sick of being slow! :'( | ||
| Running warm up/down 15:00 [3] | |
| Orienteering (remembrance park) 25:00 [2] | |
| went from cross country to help collect controls after the event. | ||

| Running 30:00 [3] | |
| Hmm. well. how to comment. very normal normal run i guess. i'm on orders to go in this act cross country run tomorrow coz i need "race practice" so just an easyish run (meant to be easy but legs were a bit sore afterwards actually).
Raining a little bit but i didn't have that long til dark when i got home this arvo so i couldn't exactly put it off. running in the rain is nice, but this wasn't a particularly nice run. basically just ran down my street and then turned corners occasionally and purposefully went up streets just coz i couldn't remember where they went or various reasons like that. fairly hilly. well slopey. oh and i ran up this street for ages only to find that it was a dead end which was annoying. no wonder i'd never been on it before. oh and the shoulder hurt a bit - more of the usual. and i remembered part way through to try to do the whole "pin back shoulders use arms lots but don't swing" thing. can't remember whether the shoulder started hurting before or after that though. i think before. maybe. siiigh. i pretty sure i'm making no sense. i should go sleeeep | ||

| Running tempo 10:00 [3] | |
| 10 x ( 20 seconds hard,
40 seconds easy ) really not that hard - didn't want to tire myself out and make a fool of myself like on tues, but ended up feeling like i hadn't really done a hard session at all. It was continuous running in laps but with the hard/easy thing - supposedly trying to get a "flow" thing happening. All was ok but i'm starting to feel a bit lost in terms of the whole coaching thing - i've never been coachcoached in running, and now i'm being told to pin back my shoulders, not sway sideways at all, but to use my arms a lot. since when did arms even matter when you run? and how does using them a lot make you go better? hmm *sighs in confusion* oh yeah and is this tempo or intervals? | ||
