Good warm up and some drills after

'Intervals' at Stanford Scrubs. Pretty quickly remembered why i don't really enjoy this map, it was ridiculously scratchy and thick and ugh. Thought it would be good for some compass work but when you're not sure you're even at the right termite mound or an ants nest, or whether it even exists anymore it was a bit hopeless. 5 intervals all about 1km but i cut off a few controls and joined 3 and 4, and had about 3min between. Kinda frustrating it was so slow and tough going because when it cleared up at the end a little i was feeling pretty alright running through the bush!

16min to warm up with Josh wooo!
13min warm down with a few drills.

5x 3/1min. Around the lake at walka, the hills were small but i felt them. Couldn't hold the pace well enough today, I slowed a bit in all of them. Hard to pick the pace up again after each of the windy spots! Quad wasn't too bad today, it just felt a bit tired as opposed to sore in a certain spot which was good.

An easy jog with mum in the hope that it'd loosen my legs up a bit. Then some drills after.

A little home strength session

Tiny little 4min warm up and warm down oops

First streeto in a while! I pulled up pretty sore from the intervals yesterday, my legs were super super stiff! The map was super flat so it was fast running but I lost a bit of speed for a while at about the 30min mark. Had done a lap time when I started the course but i was looking at the total time on my watch so thought i was late when i still had like 5min to go. So silly! I pushed to try to get one extra point but was a little late, ohhh welllll.

Warm up with some drills. Quad was feeling a bit sore again at the start but after the drills it eased off heaps, which was nice and also really weird.
Then a warm down with a few more drills.

Intervals at the track with Josh, Macey and Sal woooo! 15x 200m on a 2min cycle. Pace was meant to be 40's for me, times were between 39 and 42. Haven't had that really jelly feeling in my legs for agesss but i got it today! The first 100m would feel good enough but then i started to feel super uncoordinated and frustrated that i couldn't move my legs faster for the second 100m. Really enjoyed it though, very much like the group trainings!

Body blitz at the gym. Struggled to lift a watermelon when i got home, my armssss!

After the gym. Quad was feeling a bit bad again so it was just a little effort.

A little bit of core

9min warm up and a warm down collecting controls with some running drills

Sydney Sprint Series. Good fun course, super tricky in two sections and I lost a bit of time. Also made a mistake on the first two but that wasn't tricky that was just me being silly. Feeling a little bit worried about my right quad. I felt it a bit in Canberra but i thought it was just tired, now it's gotten a bit worse. I think the outside of my leg is just working alot harder than the inside maybe, possibly coming from my hips? Iunno... A bit of massage hopefully it'll be ok
