Vigorous hilly walk at Winkworth.

Sorted out new bike fit, moved saddle forwards 25mm and tilted down, rearranged front spacers so aerobars at same height and now tilted up slightly. Position looks great in the mirror. Looking forward to see if body will cope with drop being set at "intense".

Double leg raises, walking on tip toes.

A small twinge from static stretching, will need to be careful for a few days.

Including static stretches.

This is turning into an injury diary rather than a training log.

CMC joint at base of thumb has become unstable. Lax overstretched ligaments, classic complication of untreated Bennett's fracture. So angry/annoyed as in my case it was correctly diaganosed by the triage nurse and A&E doctor and then the following day the consultant decided it wasn't broken. Will need to see GP soon for a referral, no idea who to - no faith in our local NHS.

Dislocated thumb getting into bed last night!! Just pulling the sheet across the bed! Got even worse when I tried getting it back in place (just stretched the ligaments further). So went downstairs at 2am put on the computer and kettle and then found it had popped back in.
