Training Log Archive: PrueD

For some inexplicable reason, l couldn't run a step last night and knee was painful, but it felt reasonably OK this morning and l could. Same shoes. Possibly something to do with being tired. I kept it short just in case. Beautiful day and peak hour around the creek.

Street O at Wattle Park. I started running but my knee was really sore so l walked. A bit disappointing, as fitness wise l was going fairly well

Street O in Glen lris on a cold windy night . My knee is still a bit tender from falling on it at the AWOC champs over a week ago so l just opted for D course.

Run around the Gardiner's Creek tracks near Deakin Uni in the rain. This was the location of yesterday's sprint that l was unable to attend. I was 'persuaded' to attend my old school's old colleagian annual lunch instead, as a friend was guest speaker. It turned out to be a nice function after all, with fabulous food. Speaking of food, since recommencing work l have been eating a lot lately (l think l eat when l'm anxious) and l really felt heavy on the run today.

Run around Blackburn lake and creeklands, on a slightly different route to normal as l didn't want to run across the road in front of lots of little children and the lollipop lady. Knee was a bit tender but felt better if l strode out - so this had the benefit of a faster pace than normal. Fastest pace - 5.30 min/km - YAY.
NB. I am only running to avoid working :)
