State of Play

My running the last two days has been almost as good as the two chip butties I had for dinner (something I reserve only for recovery weeks).


Yesterday, it was: out the door, along the Songhees boardwalk, through Dockside Green, down the Galloping Goose and home.


Today, much the same: out the door, along the Songhees boardwalk, through Dockside Green, down the Galloping Goose and home. Only this time I stopped to grab a flic and four Speckled (something that is bordering on routine when Ally works late).


The legs felt as if they had a low voltage electric current running through them on Monday and Tuesday, I’m assuming residue from Saturday’s workout. Today, amongst a multitude of meetings, I managed to sneak in a massage with Janet… the pins feel better.


Training:

Monday: day off (scheduled)

Tuesday: easy 42:41

Wednesday: easy 38:15

If those chip butties won't give you a heart attack, nothing will.

that sounds like a good state to be in.

Hey Mike! Do you have a good massage therapist? Mine is away right now and I am looking for someone!

Mar,

I don't know that I should be telling you this, but her name is Janet and to get in to see her you 'must' say that I sent you as she's selective with new people. Bruce Deacon told me about her, and she saved me more than once.

She works at James Bay Chiro. Call me at work, 387-8180 and I'll give you her number.

Ciao!

Hi Michael,

Thanks for your tip about cranking up the intensity when I doubt.

FYI, the guy who was second in my AG was 1 sec behind me at the finish line. In the first k, he was 10 sec.

Good thing a Canadian yelled at me to let me know he was behind me 800 m before the finish line. I just ran hard...never realize i still have something left in me.

I am enjoying australia :)
