run 49:36 10.57 km (4:42 / km) +42m 4:36 / km
ahr:140 max:151 shoes: Saucony Freedom ISO
Ok - that was a bit weird. Tried to follow podiatrist’s instructions and take the start superceasy amd short stride a bit, got into a good rhythm with a tailwind up the coast and just felt easy the whole way. Calves still not wonderful, but better than they might have been while running and the new stretching routine ‘m trying after running seems to have stoped them seizing up too badly at the moment.
Having a day off means this is the first run without legs feelimg tired at thr start for a while - that was nice. A few more like this and I might even believe I’m getting fitter again!

Bit of a random ride, just killing an hour, doing whatever - which for me usually equates to surging the hills (coz I’m too lazy to change gears often?).

Note
Disappointed to lose my perfect school holiday exercise record this close to the end, but second day in a row working past 10pm trying to get next year’s school timetable sorted.
Thought I nailed it yesterday, but had made a couple of critical errors that led to me needing to start all over again :(

Tired legs. Tried to keep my stride short and focus on using my right glute and my right foot plant. Right calf was much better than Tuesday bur unconvinced whether my efforts today made any difference as it has been so up and down recently anyway. Can also see the potential for creating new problems by altering technique in potentially unhelpful ways.

shoes: Avanti Blade
Really must stop picking hilly routes for ‘easy’ rides. Didn’t push too hard, but it was my longest ride in a long time. Will need to think about some structured bike training in a couple more weeks if I can’t run more soon. Might end up just doing enough running to not forget what it feels like and cycling for fitness :(

Left calf pretty good, right one pretty bad. Ho hum. More bike riding ahead.

Zwift (Volcano Circuit) 1:17:00 [3] 46.38 km (1:40 / km)
shoes: Avanti Blade
Wanted to ride a different course and didn't know what the Volcano Circuit was - just that it was short. There was a badge on offer for both 5 and 10 laps, and I'm having badge withdrawal not being at the orienteering this week, so decided to give that a go. Had intended cruising around, but I don't seem to be very good at that, so pushed a bit harder than I had intended.
