Lindsays Little Adventures

ok so all of that talk about me getting motivated and into hasnt really worked out for me this week! God I remain the slacker.

So thursday, I had a meeting with my supervisor in town so i trundled myself in there on hilary and was running late, so i rode a little quicker than normal! Awesome. I like it when i actually push myself. Then i rode home. Same deal. Although this time it was because i wanted to watch ellen!

Friday afternoon I had all intentions of coming home and going for a run, but when i got home i lost inspiration very quickly and ended up on the couch. Bad Lindsay.

Saturday I was inspired, got up had my blood test, did some uni work, then jumped on my bike for a hill session up industrial drive and around. The plan was that i was going to ride for a couple of hours and head to maitland and back, however, my best laid plans were twarted by the massive head wind which i was riding into, and then being pushed into cars by. At one point i stopped riding and my bike actually stood up by itself with the help of the wind....

Anyway, did the hill session on the hardest gear for 2 reasons, 1. I felt like punishing myself. 2. Hilary is still having gear changing problems so I am trying to avoid changing back when i dont have 2.

I then came back to carro and spent a half an hour sprinting around and did about 4 laps of my little sprint course which is about 5k each i think, or close to it! Yeah for me. It felt good!

Came home, did some more uni work and my legs were feeling a bit tight, and i was feeling a bit inspired so I donned the running gear and went for a bit of a jog around...probably ended up doing about 3.5K in about 26minutes without stopping which is pretty good for me...cause of the slackerness angle. Funny thing is that i think this hill running is helping cause the run i did made me feel quite comfortable and a little bit hopeful that this running thing may actually be something of value in my life :P I was also running into the wind. And i mustnt have looked too bad cause A wanted to know if i had walked the last k....

Sunday was a write off as far as any kind of physical activity went, but had an awesome day just cruising around and having fun. Had a nice little lunch in the park and became inspired to try and run king edward park on tuesday :)

Was also going to try and cut some of the crap food out of my life starting from today....hasnt happened as yet...i started the day with a bottle of diet coke and a pack of CC's. Bad triathlete Lindsay *slaps her own wrists*

I also just looked at my scores from the last club tri I did, and as suspected was slower than before...well bugger me. The training legs have to come back out again....
