Running - easy 15:00 [2]
shoes: Adidas Supernova Glide

Not impressed, my left shin isn't really any better than Thursday, so didn't go as long as I had wanted to, bailed to the xtrainer instead. Physio not here all next week so not really sure what to do about it, a bit worried and pissed off. Will have to have a careful think about what I'm gonna do in the next few weeks to try and be fit for Nordic Tour...
There was a brass band marching about in Holyrood Park though (?), which cheered me up :-)

Note
(injured)

ARGH. On the way back from the library in my tired state I tripped over the pavement and now my left hamstring is pretty sore. BUMMER. Have got some ice on it, really hope it's one of those things that gets better quickly i.e. in time for next weekend. Definitely not my day today!
So don't know what training I'm gonna do tomorrow, maybe a trip to go swimming?

Fun, but I'm feeling a bit depleted today. Rest day tomorrow, but before that another exam this afternoon and a jog before tea to test how my shins are.

Running - easy 23:00 [2]
shoes: Adidas Supernova Glide

Jog in Holyrood Park. My left shin is feeling sore, and closer to the bone than I would like, so not such a happy bunny! Will book a physio to get advice on it and also do something about my back / SI joint, which felt pretty odd. Needs a lot of back stretches I think.

plenty of shoulder and upper body stuff,plus usual. lunges weren't great though, really tight in r side lower back, maybe my SI joint is jammed up again? Stretched it out lots but still feels odd.

S&C 28:00 [3]

7 PM

Note

Physio: got my shins sorted out again, its not actually on the shin which is great, but its the muscles on the inside, which pull my feet up in the right place, they really tightened up over the weekend cos I'm not so used to running on terrain at the moment. Told to take tomorrow off running but run Thursday, building up amount of rough terrain gradually on each run.

Orienteering - easy race 36:26 [5]
shoes: Adidas Supernova Glide

UK Cup final, a bit of a cross-country course round an army barracks. Still managed to lose a bit of time though (about 40s through route choices and being a bit blonde?), felt stronger physically than before, the k's are starting to work. Still got tired and slowed towards the end though: more intervals needed... Muscles on inside of both shins really tight after yesterday, think i got away with it but definitely no running tomorrow.
Didn't get my head into it until about control 10, but had fun, was real good running training for bigger races :-)

Running - easy warm up/down 20:00 [1]

Jogging, drills and all that...
