Saturday Feb 23 | ||
| strength (pilates) 30:00 [5] | ||
| only 4 people in class today. I guess everyone else was hungover from Rendez-vous festivities last night. It was a really good class where we used the springs for roll up and the leg circles. Good for my sore hipflexors from yesterday's ski. | ||

| and recovery. | ||
| running intervals 20:00 [4] | ||
| 4x5 w/3 rec on mill at CGC 2% 11mph
aHR 161, 165, 167, 168 mHR 169, 172, 175, 175 Despite it being a nice day outside I wanted to do these on the mill for good footing and no slipping to make sure the hamstring was okay--didn't feel it. Felt pretty good. same pace as 4 min intervals before so a small step up. More importantly I felt quite comfortable. Especially given the high HR. | ||
| map study 1:00 [0] | ||
| studying some of the route choices on Route Gadget from the Sprint Camp races and also 20 min map reading on the mill | ||
Friday Feb 22 | ||
| x-c ski classic 1:00:00 [1] | ||
| beautiful day with sunny skies.
| ||
| x-c ski classic 30:00 [3] | ||
| from Selwyn's did the 10k and Pierre Harvey loop as a fartlek for 45 min. wanted to give my hamstring a break from running. The skiing was totally pain free. relatively hard on the ups and of course easy downs. For the hills on PH Loop that meant that I was trying to ski up all of them instead of just walking like normal. Incredibly abrasive. Should have used a binder. I stopped halfway around for a couple of mins to apply more wax. As it was the end of the 45 was brutal as I had almost no kick left. My arms were sure tired and I suspect my hip flexors will be a bit sore from slipping. Doesn't help that I have zero upper body strength. My normally pathetic arms are even worse this year as I haven't skied nearly as much. | ||

Hamstring felt fine skiing too | ||
Wednesday Feb 20 | ||
| running 15:00 [1] | ||
| (injured) | ||
| easy run on trails. Hamstring was quite sore so cut it short. just want to play it safe. I don't think it is anything major. I can't feel it walking around. | ||
| stationary/road bike 15:00 [1] | ||
| a bit of easy on the bike. Wanted to test if I had pain doing that. That was actually good. I have one alternative if I can't run anyway | ||
| visualization 1:00 [0] | ||
