shoes: Inov-8 Mudclaw 300

Pentlands
Up nice and early to catch the sunrise, with Oleg and Scott. Set off a bit too spritely up Allermuir and Castlelaw and began to feel things by Turnhouse, where Oleg took us up an off-road ruthless way. Nice in the snow on Carnethy and then headed down to the road. A bit of flat and then back up through some heather over to Bell's. Bypassed this a bit, via the new 'Sasha's Traverse' and glad we did because by Harbour I had bonked. This only got worse over Capelaw, and by the time we got back to Allermuir I was finding it difficult to walk uphill - never experienced such levels. Descended like a boulder and was happy to gorge on some homemade Xmas cake back at the car.

Hills are needing some work.

Back in business, kind of. Toe feeling alright for the majority. Nice big lap round some very wet farmland. Finished off with John Knox's preaching tree and a very muddy Preston Hall.

Solo Intervals - Pathhead Circuit x 4 [90s] 6 x 10s
Felt good so headed out for a session. Still absolutely soaking so decided to stick to the roads and do laps of Pathhead - 1.63km, 30m. Had hills in mind but decided to leave that and just do 4 laps instead. Felt great, and was worried that I started too fast but only got faster as each rep rolled by. Doesn't happen very often. Toe great, calves understandably tight.

5:45, 35, 34, 31.

Road 9:43 [2] 1.92 km (5:04 / km) +20m 4:49 / km

Felt good and would have done more but Alfie was having none of it and wanted his brekkie. No problem, had more planned later.

Road 44:57 [3] 9.55 km (4:42 / km) +178m 4:18 / km
shoes: Asics 33-DFA

Steady
Foot started off dodgy but got better and better until all pain disappeared by the end. Only had 5km planned but decided to extend as things began mending. Hopefully on the upswing now, tendon very creaky at the moment but no pain. Swelling has gone down and can actually see the tendon under the skin now, like it should be normally.

Note
(rest day)

Some good news from the doctor who largely agreed with my self diagnosis. Happily gave me antibiotics and was fairly certain it would be fine within two days..! That would be great, and so will take it easy until Wednesday minimum.
Cycled to and from the pharmacy, no point in logging though *cough cough Lexc* - fairly sure my HR was higher whilst gorging myself in some cake today.
