Gusty Wednesday
Re: Gusty Wednesday
Last night was trail run club. 20 min w/u, 30 min c/d and 50 min of workout. The workout included three legs that we did 5 times. The first part of the leg was up a steep hill to be run at a moderate pace, the second leg was flat to be run at race pace, and the third leg was down to be run at an easy pace. My headlamp died about 5 min into the workout portion so I ran over an hour in the dark... Time for a new headlamp.
Today - a nice cycle to work this morning and the same to home. No running. Toe is still bothering me.
Have a great day everyone!

Re: Gusty Wednesday
Ended up sleeping in til past 9:30am this morning ... so, rather than going into work late, opted to take a mental health / r&r day, and just stayed in bed 'til noonish or so ...
Went out for a 7K run with 3x 1000m intervals @4:00, 4:03 and 3:50 .... now, back to bed for the r&r part ...

9k tempo planned for tonight plus a lot of ice on my wrist. I had the most painful chiro session today to unlock the bones in my wrist that I fell on a couple weeks ago when I tripped running. Owie!!!!!!

I went for months with a sore/locked/weak wrist after falling down this past winter. When I finally remembered to get it adjusted, it was a revelation!

Did it take only 1 adjustment to fix it? I am hoping so, that was really painful to do. And I usually love getting cracked.

A few days later I felt like I could have used another adjustment on it, but then it seemed to resolve itself, and has been fine since. YMMV.

Re: Gusty Wednesday
Did about 36 minutes today, 25 of it continuous. Pretty good, considering it was a third day of running in a row for me--I usually do two on, one off.
P.S. TM running is something else I haven't done. They tried to put me on a TM at the running shoe store and I all but fell off! Not really eager to try that again, but it is probably a handy thing to do when it is -40 outside.

8km tonight. Warm-up, 1 minute reps with 1 minute slow jog in between x 10 @5k pace. Ended with a cooldown back to the store. This was followed up with beer, sandwich and fries at a pub.
Re: Gusty Wednesday
8k last night, 8:14 pace. very little walking, and felt good.
