Running - easy 45:00 [2]
shoes: Old walshes

Round some new places :-) Nice to have a change of scene. Weather not too nice though, slushy and icy and some bits of fairly deep snow. Shin not bad but will have a few more days of easy running.

Note
(rest day)

After another night with not v much sleep and helping one of my flatmates move out, this week has finally caught up with me! Went to Fyrishov but ended up just having a sauna instead of doing intervals in the pool like i planned. But at least after a sleep tonight my batteries should be recharged, and things should be a bit calmer now :-)

Running - easy 53:00 [1]
shoes: Old walshes

Nice easy loop out round Gamla Uppsala. Shin getting better :-)
6 PM

Jympa 24:00 [3]
shoes: Adidas Supernova Glide (Dec 10

Got in half a class before my shoulder dislocated, right in the middle of my favourite bit :-( It went back in easily but was kinda sore, didn't feel like finishing the class was the best thing. I think it was kinda tired from carrying my heavy bag round town all afternoon.

Really have to get it operated on at the end of this season, will trry to sort it out early this time. At least it goes back so easily now that i could probably do it in the middle of a race and keep running, but it's obviously still not great. Hope that's my last injury for at least this week!

Running - easy 52:00 [1]
shoes: Old walshes

From home, easy training this morning, feeling a bit tired after having a flat party last night. Got stuck behind a snowplough for a bit! Some on tracks, some in deeper snow.
6 PM

Alternative training warm up/down 10:00 [1]

Waiting for a free static bike!

Alternative training 30:00 [3]

10 x 3min/1min

Just felt like a bit of a change from the pool (its really dull!) Crowded in the gym today, everyone avoiding the snow. Wanted to do some barefoot running on the treadmill but there was none free.

Alternative training warm up/down 19:00 [1]

Aquarunning - easy long 1:30:00 [1]

Had planned to ski again, but found that i didn't have the right wax so just went to the pool instead. Not too long today, Wednesday is an easier day atm.

Thinking about my shin, am going to keep running a bit, especially now we have a new layer of snow, but shortish runs and no fast running until it feels better again. And plenty of shin exercises and core and leg strength. Really frustrating injuy, but am at least able to do a lot more than this time last year and am loads stronger :-)

Not exactly to plan again! Headlamp died after 2mins, i think the battery is broken. Then slipped on the ice (trying to save my shins a bit by not wearing metal dobs) and hit the back of my head. Was fine to finish the run, just trying to stay on my feet and follow the others, but never really got over the shock of it, felt like i had no energy and was scared of falling over again. So just the 14km loop.

Could feel my shin a bit at the end as well, it doesn't really like running on ice. More snow please!

Running - hard hills 20:30 [4]
shoes: Old walshes

18 reps. Same hill as last time, but the snow had melted a bit then frozen again, so my times were shorter. A bit slippery on the downhills! Had a nosebleed for some of it but not enough to make me dizzy or anything, think i might have scared a few people with the blood on the way home though...!

Running - easy warm up/down 48:00 [1]
shoes: Old walshes

Downhills, plus being extra slow on the icy bits to and from home.
6 PM

Alternative training warm up/down 22:00 [1]

S&C 40:00 [3]

Legs quite tired tonight, still not used to running hill reps! So not doing too much with them, i guess it's easy to get injured when you change or increase your training like this.

Replaced calories with a massive flat feast afterwards! :-)
