Training Log Archive: Bomb

rode from boonah to Oma and Opa's cottage at Mt Alford with Dad, had a cup of tea and rode home.
Calf is still a bit sore - especially at the top behind my knee.

supposed to be a long run this morning, but 85mins isn't long. ran from Ian's place with some of the cyclones crew. felt like crap. calves are a mess, I think I'll try and avoid any hill running for a while and see if that helps.

Didn't feel sick today, but definitely didn't feel right. Resting heart rate was stupidly high (usually about 40), and stayed high all day with some kinda weird chest pain. Hopefully another day off and I'll be ok - I'm sick of not training. Calves are still quite sore, so an extra day of rest should help them too.

Massage this morning. It hurt lots - it hate my calves! hopefully a bit more streching will improve things so that I can go for a jog this evening.

River ride with the trolls. Felt like total crap, I didn't sleep, I hit the wall riding down my street before I even met the group, and my right calf was totally stuffed - I wasn't getting any power out of my right leg and by the end of the ride I couldn't straighten my right leg and had to ride with a wonky pointed foot.
Luckily I've got an appointment for a massage tomorrow morning. I think its going to hurt a lot though :-(

time trial at the UQ track with the rest of the cyclones. my first 5k track run! just as painful and boring as expected, and my time should be easy enough to beat next time!
calf was a bit sore, but I don't think it slowed me down

C • 5k times 3

warm up /down for time trial

Splits from the 5k - 3.56, 4.17, 4.17, 4.18, 4.06

Maybe if I can learn to pace the run a bit more evenly I might get a better time!! I just get so bored!

very easy run out to long pocket. Calf still a bit sore, but fine to run at that pace - hopefully better tomorrow!
felt a bit flat, not surprising after saturday though!
