Long Legs

Okay, so with my best laid plans to do some hill training yesterday I instead had a pleasant surprise when my sister (the professional ballerina) decided to come running with me. After the initial performance anxiety (ie she is lots taller and faster than me) I had quite a good run. She picked up some things about my running which I wasnt aware of, and then we did a long stretch session which was awesome...about 2.5k over some hills with some brief stops to find the dog after she had went walkabout...

So imagine my surprise again today when she said she wanted to come training again...another 2.5k and me running much faster than previous...

The legs were a bit sore after though...

mmm the uneventful week...

Ok so, after getting all inspired earlier in the week to do good things with this whole trainin and triathlon business i have had quite the flop...

Did a couple of hour sessions on the wind trainer, with alternating between high rpm and then either standing or sprints during the ad breaks...you know just to make it fascinating...i did watch "American Flyers" though and liked it lots...also rode along with that, sprinted when they did etc...sounds corny but was an awesome workout...I also emailed about the cycling clubs to see if there is any chance of me maybe joining for the winter season...no love from them yet...

Tuesday and Wednesday I had a migraine which knocked me out....

Thursday I found that the tube that I had replaced last week on Vanessa was again flat and havent had time to look and see whats going on there...assuming that maybe the beading is exposed and rubbing on the tube...

So this afternoon, in sunny laurieton, I am going to do the hill session that i love and about 3k loop around...

Wind Training

Thanks for the well wishes guys! I was all ok following rude driver man, just a bit annoyed!

I have since bought a wind trainer though and have been doing an hour a couple of times a week on it! Although I have been sweating my little tooshie off in the process..

My chiro has given me permission to start training again, so i guess its time to get off my ass!

Nice work on the ironman btw miners, checked in on your progress a couple of times during the day :)
