Tennis 20:00 [1]
Warm up hit with Liam before his final tournament match.
He was hitting it ok in the warm up but the fatigue from yesterday really showed in his match. Still managed to scrape home 4-2 4-3.
Stayed to watch the end of the final between Brendan and Rhys which went down to a sudden death point in the 3rd set tie break. Brendan was looking pretty knackered too, even before starting the final point which lasted about 10 minutes.

Running long 57:15 [2] 10.17 km (5:38 / km) +101m 5:22 / km
shoes: Saucony Triumph ISO 2 Blue
Heel was a bit sore in the morning so I thought it would be better to do an afternoon bike ride than an early morning run but when it came to the afternoon I couldn't find the motivation to ride my bike so went for a run instead. Aim was to run as far as Rachel did in the morning but my heel started to get a bit sore at about 45 minutes so I didn't try to extend it for the extra couple of minutes I needed. Very busy in the park, as usual on a sunny weekend afternoon. Saw a quenda near Park Ave.

Warm up hit with Liam before his tournament.
He played a total of 5 matches and said he was feeling tired by half way through the second so probably could have done without the warm up.

NavDash Murdoch. Struggled to keep up with the map reading through the first few controls, then struggled to get past Rachel for a couple, then struggled to keep running after going up the stairs.

Easy run in KP with headlamp, mostly on the sand which is very soft now. Very stiff and sore from pump yesterday but didn't affect me too much while running.

Gym 50:00 [3]
Pump class with Cc. Nobody had told Cc or anybody else that the pump class was not on the calendar anymore so all the usuals were there and class was on as usual. Just legs today, lots of variations of squats and lunges. Legs pretty shaky by the end. Jogging home I was trying to angle across from the right hand side of the road to the left but I couldn't get over the hump in the middle of the road and kept drifting back into the right hand gutter.

Little jog around RP with a stop at the gym.
Gym 15:00 [1]
Thought I should do a gentle gym session to prepare myself for getting back into pump class on Thursday but when I checked the gym calendar the pump class seems to have disappeared (again). Still did the session but kept it very short and light.

Tennis 30:00 [1]
Warm up hit with Liam before his private lesson with Josh. Liam broke a string so had to switch to the 27" racquet for his lesson. Also found out Liam's Monday group lesson starts this week so he kept playing until 7:15pm.

Taupo Parkrun.
Went out too fast and came home faster.
Perfect conditions, cold and still, and a pretty flat course so seemed like a good opportunity to see how fast I can actually run at the moment. I was guessing about 21 minutes but after a faster start I had slipped to a 4:13 second km, my breathing was out of control and my heel was starting to hurt so I thought it would be a stretch.
Hit the turn in around 10:25 and thought I would have to really push the return journey to be within striking distance of 21 when I got near the finish. I must have recovered a bit from my too fast start with inadequate warm up and actually picked up the pace quite a bit on the way back which I did not expect. Really felt I had given it all I had by the end so good to know where I stand at the moment. Heel not hurting at all on the way back but started to hurt a bit, along with calf, pretty soon after finishing.
