Walking 1:03:00 [2]
shoes: helios - black
An even better pre dawn walk up Majura with Flan - this time I wasn't late, and we saw the sunrise after we reached the top. Flan full of energy and bounce which is incredible, treatment finishes next tuesday and she seems to have hardly felt it. I still can't keep up. Spine probably bit better again but only able to have a short run on an uphill section. Tried again on way down and the R sciatica said no.
Delightful to go up in the cool air and predawn light, it was dark when alarm went off and I wavered a bit but reminded myself that the more I do it the easier it gets, and nothing fixes my back like walking up hills. Only 1 cup of tea beforehand - good time saver.
Took 31:30 to make top which is exactly the same as last time I think.

Strength Stability Suppleness 1:00:00 [1]
Came home and did hours of gardening unitl it got so hot that I had my vision disappear for half a second. Quickly got myself in for a cold shower. I'll call it an hour of vigorous muscle stuff.
Watered my garden, the guerrilla garden, my neighbours garden (some with watering can), rigged up more shade, cut back the terrible bamboo patch behind the house, moved large veg pots into shade and dug them in, removed net from big apricot, set up extra water for birds, removed one and a half rats from under plum tree and composted, added more to compost to cover, did some wet mulching of veg patch, caught and killed sap-sucking-citrus-bugs from top of lemon tree, harvested produce for lunch, bottled some wild plums (which are delicious without any sugar at all, glad I didn't put any in this time) and looked under bonnet of car for J.
Ok now I can see why I was out so long and got light headed. Lunch tastes amazing, how I love you, avocados!

Cycling 15:00 [2]
Great idea to go for a ride as the evening cooled. A few spots of rain didn't last even a second on my arms. It got a bit heavier and I thought this won't soak in to the soil, won't make a difference, feels nice. Then it got heavier and heavier. Rain is so fun to ride in when it's been hot, until it starts hitting so hard your face hurts. Hail! Darted back to shops to get milk where they probably had to mop up after me. Still fun tho.
