Helping out with beginners on skis on the dry mats... not much opportunity to do much myself so went for a few laps on r-s after the end.

Trot round short loop at H'head then back to M+Os by the roads.

Family parkrun fail this morning.
Alternative was an unstructured long hill session at Dess with J. Decent w-u the long way to DAP. Downhill jogs between efforts. Shuffle back down as w-d.
Felt rubbish on the w-u, but it was ok once I got going. Generally been feeling tired and unmotivated this week. Not sure why. Somewhat better for having done a decent session.

1st effort all the way to the top above the quarry pond, down to waterfall, 2nd effort up again via the ski run, down to DW bridge and then last effort from there to top.
1st 6:48
2nd 9:06 (first 3' flattish then a beast of a climb)
3rd 8:03

Quite breezy, so stayed down in the valley. S Deeside loop - out to Potties, along to Aboyne and back by the A93. Felt pretty good.

Not feeling at all motivated. Weather doesn't help.

To and from start of intervals

With J 8 x 2'+1' on DW from edge of Aboyne out past gliding strip. 3 out and 5 back. Helped having someone to push me. Feeling ok, but hamstrings still a bit tight.

Same again today.

Full day of coaching at Huntly. Bits and bobs on and off skis throughout the day.
Fun!
