Running 1:06:22 13.5 km (4:55 / km) +14m 4:53 / km
ahr:137 max:144 slept:7.5 weight:69.1kg shoes: Adizero Boston
Maffetone. Feeling stuffed today but that is ok because I'll be forced to have a few days off after surgery tomorrow. Heart seemed slow to respond today, took a long time to get up over 120 when I started and took a long time to drop back to 140 any time I went over.
Conditions similar to two weeks ago and times even slower. Warm and humid with a cross/headwind going out and cross/tailwind coming back. Thought it would be faster coming back but the last km or so is quite a bit slower than the first and I think I have to drop the effort more to keep the heart rate down in warm conditions.
Out 20:31.5 4:42/km 140
Back 21:12.8 4:51/km 141 (Total Beats 5863)

Cycling 41:48 17.8 km (25.6 kph)
Usual loops in KP.
Made it to the top of the hills on the first loop before my heart popped this time so didn't cost me any time on the first loop but I really struggled through most of the second loop. Started to come good as it flattened on the top part of the climb but any chance of a respectable time was long gone. Actually, I'm still a long way off being able to do a respectable time even when my heart is good.
5.9k 11:28.7 30.8km/h
3.8k 8:09.6 27.9km/h
Felt really bad when I got home again. I think I'm going to have to give up doing these rides. Maybe if I stopped treating it like a time trial I would be ok but I'm not sure I can find the motivation to do them any other way. Time to up the running instead maybe.

Running 45:40 [2] 8.0 km (5:43 / km)
shoes: Nike Free 3.0
Easy run around KP. Still feeling a bit flat from the rogaine but no sore bits which is a nice surprise.
