God my new bike is so much fun to ride. I had a massage after on my lower back, glutes and a bit on my calf. It wasn't a great massage, she seems like a knowledgable and decent masseur but i know what i like. Need a masseur with strong hands but isn't clumsy with them, and also when they go deep and you scream they don't stop or ask you "are you ok?". Ok so this masseur doesn't know me so they had to ask "are you ok?" to understand my limits but i'm still on the lookout for a good sports masseur. I wish the Irish team would enlist a soigneur like cycling teams use, a person who does all the odd jobs and one such job includes daily sports massage.

I've dropped 1.1kg since last Friday. That's probably too fast.

8 PM

Grass / road 33:44 [2] 5.88 km (5:44 / km)
ahr:141 max:156 shoes: Asics gel-1140 #1

Started off for a 60min run but turned back with a little bit of stiffness or niggle in my right shin. In the shower i could feel the soleus muscle being real tight and a bit painful to press on in a small condensed area where my injury has been. Not good news. I also felt like muck on the run, i'm feeling low on energy even though i'm consciously trying to stuff my face with food and liquids.

I got home real late from work and didn't have time to train with having to go to a table quiz. It means I skip an easy cycle from the schedule.

This felt like an intensity 3 in my body and the heartrate confirms how much i was working. It's going to take a while to get the numbers down.

(sick) (rest day)

From 3am to 9am i threw up about ten times. It got pretty aggressive after the fifth time when i had nothing left in my stomach.
While having spasms in my abs region, to vomit, some pain went into my legs and my lower back over the course of the morning. My lower back is in bits right now.
Should be fine by the tomorrow, that's what i'm telling myself.
