Training Log Archive: Dooby

Feeling ok today but will give the plan a miss. Will run tomorrow.

Gave training a miss. Throat was sore yesterday and felt like a slight cold today so didn't feel up to it. Did cut the grass after lunch and that was alright. Didn't lose the lawnmower in the swamp that my backgarden was for the winter.

Out before breakfast. Cool morning but should be a nice day. Feeling ok.

Was thinking that with IOC postponed for another year that I might as well think about running World Cup Relay course in Muckross. Very unlikely I’ll run elite sprint at IOC.

Bray Head

Walk up to and back down from the tower. Work :-)

Stunning morning (& day). Roads quiet too without any tourists so made good time down.

Lough Guitane-Crosstown-Killarney

Added in the extra bit to the level crossing for a bit more time on the bike. Bit tired after a drive to and from Valentia immediately before this.

Lovely day for it though, sun shining but a bit of an easterly wind. Made use of it though with this direction. Moving fast back into town from Crosstown. A bit faster up that hill than the last attempt too, but a lot of work to do, breathing hard.

Ice cream with the lads in the afternoon, to be fair it was a day for it.

Upper Torc

Mainly trails with a few bigger tracks thrown in. Had a rough plan of route. Through in a few extra bits here and there.

Met around 7 or 8 people in the woods today. Probably seen as many people in the last few weeks as i've ever seen in that part of the world. The path less trodden.

Legs feeling a small bit tired starting out but ok overall.

Forecast has some rain/drizzle, but hasnt' materialised yet. At least the rainfall radar on Met Eireann site is showing rain out west, had thought about going to Valentia today for a walk/work, but will go in the morning instead before a few days break for Easter, break from work that is.

Lovely day.
Body feeling ok.

No shopping dramas.

Main drama today was potty training related! Should have been more aware of what Erik was up to...

Did last weeks route in reverse to take advantage of the wind and to not have to suffer into it on the main road back into Killarney.

Moving alright. Hills didn't feel great.

But not sure I was able for much more. Was in Tralee for work and managed to get a dentist appointment to fix a tooth problem that surfaced last night, lucky to get the appointment, but not lucky when I needed 2 fillings. So the numbness in my mouth gradually lessened during the spin.

At least I got out.
