Running long 1:25:43 [2] 14.88 km (5:46 / km) +320m 5:12 / km
shoes: Adistar Cushion 5a
Long run through John Forrest. Legs felt really heavy on the hills, I guess from the weights yesterday. Felt cool for the first 5 minutes then got warm as it was very still and a bit humid. Seemed to cool down again towards the end as the breeze picked up. Stopped at the toilets near the tavern and then felt a bit better up the long hill to the highway. Started to feel a little sore around the achilles after this so picked up the pace a bit to mask the pain.

Running 41:18 [2] 7.35 km (5:37 / km) +120m 5:12 / km
shoes: Adistar Cushion 5a
Rehab loop again. Pretty much just a shuffle again only this time I think it was mostly due to eating breakfast too soon before running. Should have gone before breakfast as it was getting a bit warm by the end.
Gym 30:00 [0]
Usual weights. Felt much stronger than Tuesday.

Running 43:20 [2] 7.35 km (5:54 / km) +120m 5:27 / km
shoes: Adistar Cushion 5a
Shuffled around the rehab loop early (for me) in the morning. Legs felt really heavy from the start. Thought about turning back at O'Connor Rd but continued on and started to feel a little better after this. Starting to go downhill helps. About 6:37/km going out and 5:12 coming back.

Running tempo 1:01:39 13.13 km (4:42 / km) +200m 4:22 / km
shoes: Adistar Cushion 5a
Warm up on first 4km of the 10k loop in 22:52 then 8k of tempo in 33:10 up Martin Rd and down the railway trail. Felt like a bit more of a constant effort than most of my tempo runs, which is what I was looking for, but there was a bit too much downhill at the end (last 3k 3:49, 3:50, 3:35). Achilles not quite ready to snap yet.

Cycling 57:53 [2] 24.93 km (25.8 kph)
Ride to work from Woodbridge Lakes. Decided to try doing some shorter rides this week instead of the usual long ride and easy run.
Cycling 1:05:40 [2] 24.8 km (22.7 kph)
Ride back to Woodbridge Lakes. Hot, headwind, unpleasant. Could be my last ride for this summer.

Running tempo 58:18 11.42 km (5:06 / km) +220m 4:39 / km
shoes: Adistar Cushion 5a
Warm up from Club Sierra down railway to Strettle Reserve with Rachel. Started my tempo effort at the 4k split and did a couple of laps around Strettle Reserve because it was nice and shady. Decided to stay on the bitumen rather than the railway trail for a change going back up to Coppin Rd. A bit of tenderness in the right achilles but not bothersome.

Running 24:10 [2] 4.38 km (5:31 / km)
shoes: Adistar Cushion 5a
Easy run down the railway trail to Darlington while Rachel rode the bike with Liam on the back. Sat and watched cars for an hour while Rachel rode back and got the car.
Both achilles/ankles sore getting up this morning so I didn't want to do too much.
