Recovery

Tuesday

AM
7.5km-31:15 (4:10kms) With Action The Bay

Too fast for an easy run, need to hide next time I see him coming.

PM
16km-71:28 (4:28kms) Solo The Bay

Left hammy still screaming from Sunday's standing starts, contemplated a fartlek but think it's better to fully recover rather than a half arsed session with only 18 days to the season opener.


Wednesday

AM
7km-34:50 (4:59kms) Solo The Bay

PM
16km-67:44 (4:14kms) With Copey and Stokesy The Bay

Stokesy's 10km Pram WR 34:19 went down recently to a Kiwi bloke, knew there must've been a reason for him returning to training. As usual, add someone a little fresh and these runs get a bit quick, finished with several sub 4min kms.

Freshened up nicely, hammy a bit tender but heaps better, shoved countless needles into the offending muscle and it worked a treat. Will join Copey for longer intervals tomorrow and save the fast running for Friday and Sunday.

  1. Are you talking about a 10km with a baby jogger? 34:19, that's not to bad, but I friend ran about 29min for an 8km with a double and another friend ran 79:xx for a half (half on gravel roads and not flat, while the friend with the double only ran about 90 in the wind...

  2. Yep 34:19 was the official WR, he was pushing his 6 year old daughter in a standard pram, I had the indignity of watching Russ finish 9sec in front of me. The new WR is 32:26 by Dougal Thorburn of NZ, your mates should have a crack at the record.
