easier day today. started off with a nice long sleep and then easy tourist run. explored Segorbe, which would definitely be good sprinting. found some extra unplanned hills but really nice and warm.

morning jog and drills

11 AM

Running - easy hills 1:40:00 [3]
shoes: Saucony Kinvara - Jan 2016

went to Pico de la Rapita, the highest thing nearby (1106m). parked at 700m. steep and rocky paths for nearly all of it, so no quick km even on the descents and lungs working quite hard even at a slow speed. up the peak taking a couple of extra tops, then descent on the other side and along to the next hill, then turned and back the same way home. my low reserves at the moment meant it was good to take a gel at the far end. main limitation was quad burn on the last bit!
watch says about 850m ascent. about 3x backbana?

i went to a cafe and found a cake that was like a steamed chocolate pudding, kind of fudgy and gooey, but in a pie case. it fuelled this run but does mean i'm still too full to do core afterwards.

morning jog and drills. nice and warm here. legs a little heavy but was expecting that.

11 AM

Running - easy 1:35:00 [2]
shoes: Saucony Kinvara - Jan 2016

the mian training of the day, just an easy run about to explore. loads of tracks to run on from the door, i startd with the flatter long distance foot/cycle path to Jerica, which would be great sprint-o i think. up to look at some nice buildings there then decided to make it a round route. ended up longer than intended: short cuts make long delays...

6 PM

Running - easy 30:00 [2]
shoes: Saucony Kinvara - Jan 2016

nice evening jog. picked up some "cooking oil" at the end, got home and saw it's white wine vinegar instead. will go well with the "salad" i picked up yesterday which turned out to be a big bag of parsley...

my legs feel better today but back to just not being able to read the map. stress really can stop you being able to think straight! hungry in the night and this morning again, have lost weight this last two weeks :-(

instead of getting better the terrain got tougher and i seem to be having some kind of all-systems meltdown... blahblah it's happened before and will happen again, most worrying is legs seem to have gone today too, not just stressed out brain not being able to think. felt awful!
