Nice day for a run. Legs feeling grand after their rest but don't trust them.

Munster Road Champs 2017, Currow (4 mile)

Set virtual partner to I think 3.27 per km, wanted to run a more controlled race today. Hill in first km so a bit slower but 2nd km better. People around me I was happy to be around and more in front to work on later.

Didn't trust my calf and was right not to, right one gave up after around 2km. Jogged home from there. Warm down! Not torn but hurts.

FRUSTRATED-FRUSTRATED-FRUSTRATED

Running had been going well recently, happy with how the legs and fitness were, but calves are back to properly not co-operating again. Really don't know what to think at this stage, apart from the obvious frustration or even do. Physio tomorrow so that's something to maybe look forward to. Pissed off.

Home to a homemade apple tart and a big quiche. Just what I needed.

UCC

Spent a painful-ish time on the back baller yesterday evening working on calves, they definitely felt better for it, and are feeling a bit better today. Must text physio for an appointment next week, probably due one.

Cycling 1:06:18 [3] 31.87 km (2:05 / km) +346m 1:58 / km
shoes: Spiuk ZS11

Bit damp on the roads but didn't rain. Not that cold either. Some wind though, think it was a headwind on the way up, but mainly only had an affect on the more open stretches higher up.

Felt a bit tired but put in an effort on the climb. An improvement on last time but need to improve faster.

Quick stop on the way up to check Garmin settings.

Right calf didn't feel fantastic, could feel it a bit pedalling. It's got a few days rest ahead of it.

Didn't feel too energetic on the way down but was moving fast at times.

6 months married today!

shoes: Brooks Ghost 9

Knockreer

Not too bad weatherwise apart from a few showers, not that wet though. Decided to avoid the golf course after having a chap on the phone at work from there earlier about rights of ways, cyclists and golfers. So went for a different route.

Pace wise might have been slightly too fast. Right calf not the best afterwards. It's got a few days rest to look forward to now.

Lough Guitane - Barraduff

Really pissed off this evening, somehow reset my Garmin since it wasn't downloading and lost data, grrrr. Serious tailwind from Barraduff to Killarney, was in the mid to high 40s for a good bit along Ballaghcommane. Would have liked to see the data for it.

Distance is right but no idea about time.

Other than that legs were alright but headwind up the hills wasn't fun.

Nice evening, legs got to see a bit of sun.
