Run 37:46 [3]
shoes: Mizuno Wave Nirvana 6

With Michael. Started off doing the usual run but by the time we got to the boardwalk at Coxs Bay my stomach hurt so much we had to stop. Was running super slow and really tried to keep running as long as possible but it was just getting a bit ridiculous.

Walk 1:00:00 [2]
shoes: Mizuno Wave Nirvana 6

We walked the rest of the way which actually took quite a long time. I was hoping I'd feel better at least by the time we got to Arch Hill but it really wasn't to be. Felt manageable walking though.

Climbing (indoor - TR) 1:30:00 [3]
shoes: Red Chili Spirit Lady

Climbing with Michael at Extreme Edge. SO humid and feeling really weak and wimpy to start with but pulled out some good efforts near the end.

Road Bike 30:00 [3]
shoes: Louis Garneau Revo XR

To and from the gym. Lovely headwind on the way there (not).
6 AM

Peloton (Spin) class intervals 40:00 [5]
shoes: Louis Garneau Revo XR

Epic. But I've definitely got stronger on the bike since the last time I went to class which was cool to see plus I'm much better at handling the heat (my efficient cooling system of sweating so much it looks like I've been rained on seems to work quite well...as long as you don't need to open your eyes!).

Gym (core and stretches) 15:00 [3]

Run 1:04:11 [3]
shoes: Mizuno Wave Nirvana 6

Look at me! Running in the evening again! I couldn't be bothered getting up this morning so I got to run tonight in the lovely rain...which actually was pretty much perfect 'cause I never got hot and it was warm enough to not get cold. But my running cap was very helpful...meant I didn't get another water bath for the eyes! Pretty much the same route as last Friday (the lake, Jaggers Bush, Coxs Bay, Grey Lynn Park, Arch Hill Reserve, Bullock Track) but with a slight shortcut. I was running slower than a snail but it was nice to be running.

6 PM

Run warm up/down 10:00 [2]
shoes: Mizuno Wave Nirvana 6

To and from the event. Felt quite good on the run home up the hill but I was mightily glad I wasn't Owen and didn't have to run 5km back to work again.

Orienteering race (SS - Western Springs) 54:34 [3] 8.0 km (6:49 / km)
shoes: Mizuno Wave Nirvana 6

Started off a little fast and then just felt so tired and hot...SO hot. It was such a runner's course tonight and I am not very fast. I did enjoy a bit of a bash round in the bush for 8 and 9 though. Oh yeah, and worked out where I can get through the fence down by the college so gotta remember that for next time. Need to do some more running now that I am basically all recovered and everything.

6 AM

Road Bike 35:00 [3]
shoes: Louis Garneau Revo XR

To and from the gym. Coming home was quite possibly the most miserable 20 minutes of my life (actually, make that 25 minutes because I got so many red lights as well)...it was so wet I was completely drenched, even inside my shoes, within about a minute. Getting wet was okay. It was more that the rain was flying straight into my eyes. Should have swum home instead!!!

Run (treadmill) 10:00 [4]
shoes: Mizuno Wave Nirvana 6

Increasing the speed every 2 minutes. Perhaps there is a miniscule bit of hope for me yet...

Gym (arm weights and core) 35:00 [3]

The usual, and getting sidetracked being social.

Note

Was supposed to meet Chris and Haydn for climbing but looks like I'm going to be stuck at work for quite some time...
