thursday
Lets see, Monday started off with a shock that after all those workouts my weight had crept back up to 74kg. I didnt panic too much, but my legs still were too sore to run. tuesday did a nice run and yesterday I didnt have time in the morning but managed to get out in the evening. I was really tired and my legs are still a bit sore, but felt better ( Read more... ) -
Monday
Weekend went as planned. Good run on Saturday and three times round the red arrow! Just took it easy and walked it with a bit of a run up some of the stairs. Sunday I did a nice bike in the middle of the day when it was blazing hot. bad thing though I stopped for a water break and dropped my sunglasses and didnt realize till I got home. Went back ( Read more... ) -
friday
73.1 on the scale this morning before the run, then 73.2 after! Its those reading that are frustrating, that I can't trust that scale. i took a shower and then weighed in again and it was at 72.9! I guess if I average it out I still should be right at 73, or high 72's ( Read more... ) -
thursday
Well lets see, I said you can hit your calves pretty hard and they recover fast, but I think Ive over done it a bit. I managed a run yesterday and actually started out feeling strong, but once i hit the red arrow hills my calves were screaming. It rained lightly and the cooling down of the rain helped get me through, but it was tough going. Today I ( Read more... ) -
weekend
72.8 weigh in this morning before running! Started to rain on the dog walk and I have an appointment this morning so going to have to skip the run. Im not too worried, I worked my legs pretty hard over the weekend. Extended my run on Saturday and still managed twice round red arrow. Then Sunday with tired legs managed to get on the bike and do my ( Read more... ) -
friday
I really gave my poor legs a hammering this week. I missed the run last night, but went out this morning. The temps are starting to rise again and it hits me like a wall. Even so on the red arrow I felt strong and was fooled into running hard up the first part of the trail which left my legs screaming as the lactate surged and my heart rate raced ( Read more... ) -
thursday
Was going to run this morning, but time has got away from me and I have things I need to do. Hopefully if I can stay on track maybe I can run in the afternoon. I checked my weight and was at 73.9, this is without a run where I can loose about a kilo, so that is great, i may well be in the 72's after a run! I want to rest Friday from running and ( Read more... ) -
Wednesday
Skipped any workouts yesterday, stomach just never felt right, even had just a soup for dinner. Ran this morning and killed my calves. They were screaming on the climbs round the red arrow, but kept on pushing and made it round twice. Calves can take a beating and recover fast. Weight is hovering around 74 still. Just need to focus on the running ( Read more... ) -

Saturday I cycled, Sunday I did my run and extended it a little. I didnt go until the afternoon and the heat really killed me. Monday I ran again and still managed twice round the red arrow. More walking then usual on the way back though. Legs are sore today, and got a bad case of the poo's from the curry I think last night. Giving the run a miss, ( Read more... ) -

I gave the running a day off yesterday, but was back on it this morning. The weather has changed and its now warm and sunny again, and wow what a difference. I was pouring sweat like a fountain and my heart was working much harder than on those cool days. I still made it twice around the red arrow, but was struggling on the way back and had much ( Read more... )
