Running (Long) 1:25:00 [3] 14.56 km (5:50 / km)
ahr:150 max:170 weight:50.8kg
Was going to do the usual Tuesday hill run, but the thought wasn't so pleasant after this weekends races so instead I went out Brushwood to Rt25 and around on the rail trail to get in a good, easy, long run. Couldn't remember how long that loop was, and it ended up being longer than I was thinking and my legs are definitely tired now. Felt great most of the way, smooth and strongish and HR low for the pace etc, but an hour in, things started to fall apart. typical. hip flexors mostly. toe hurts now, not bad, but I know it's there. Overall a positive run. I need to start building the base back, especially so I can sustain the leg speed, concentration and focus on a Long course. and a long course after a middle and sprint the day before!
Core strength 3:00 [1]
Tried doing some ball crunches and pushups but my body was too tired after the long run so I quit after 2x25crunches and 1x20 girly pushups.
Oh, and I did get in 4 strides after the run which felt really good to stretch out the legs after the long short-stride shuffle. :)
