Plans

No gym tonight as it's closing early and full of kiddies due to the bank holiday. So m planning a run on my old course it will be interesting to see how I find it as I haven't run it since I joined the gym

extending

WE I've extended the distance slightly to around 3 miles, with a different route to the gym. I'm still having problems with a particular hill having to slow to a walk for around 50 feet, normally timed with crossing of the road, but the new route adds on an interesting track (most of my routes are street based)

I then did another mile on the treadmill and 1000m rowing. Feeling a bit achy possibly because I wasn't really with it today and initally it felt like a bit of a chore... hopefully just one of those off days we all have.

Question : which is more accurate my GPS watch, or a treadmill?

On and in and on

Another run day. The weather was to but it bluntly crap, with wind and drizzle, but not too cold, so out cane the new ron hill jacket... Verdict excellent although it's not a good idea to wear cotton underneath.

I changed the route slightly so I,m now upto 2.57 miles on a average of 10.29 pace. The new route is nice but I really really hate hills especially those long sloping ones.

Once I arrived at the gym I had a mile on the cross trainer, 5mins on the stepper/runner and then 10miz on the treadmill and finished off with 10 lengths of the pool. Now off for a chinese!!!!

Made it!!!

Another heavy session. My run to the gym was ok and I extended it very slightly with a run of 2.4miles ~10m/mi. I then managed another 3 miles (37.09) on the treadmill at varying speeds and inclines.

No rowing or bike thus session but a soak in the pool was very welcome. Boy am I going to ache tomorrow!!!

Eventually

In all day with the wife kids and the kitchen fitters. Still a bit achy from Fridays exertions and it looks like it's going to rain... But I will be going out tonight .... eventually

Hmmmm

I pushed it a little bit on friday and I know today is supposed to be a rest day, but after spending most of the day in he workshop working (obviously) I want to run it's a nice day and I need to wind down... But I don't want to push thongs too much either....choice choice choices

Wow what was I on?????

I didn't really feel in the mood today, having been a bit stressed over the last few days. HOwever the wife was in the mood to go to the gym so I tagged along, via my 2 mile run from home to the gym. For a while I have not used music when I was running as I needed to concentrate on my breathing and my pacing, but today out came the ipod and off I went. My pace was good, my heart rate was good and I got to the leisure centre feeling fresh. This might explain why when I got to the gym I decided to do another 2 miles on the treadmill, 5 minutes on a bike, 500m on the rowing machine (at 2m/500m!!) and then to top it all off 10 lengths of the pool.

God knows what I was on!!!

Then we went and spoiled it all with a kebab!!! I will point out that I used to eat the kebab without the exercise... as soneone posted recently...

I run so I can eat cake
