R: 5 * 3min @ 6, 10, 10.5, 11, 6kmhS: 400, 200, 400Managed a 5:35 for the second 400, which I was happy enough with. Running still feels a bit odd around the knees.This morning…
Swim: 1000m variousHoping to get ready for the Palm Beach – Whale Beach swim at the end of January. 2.5km open water. I’ve never done an ocean swim before, so the plan is to concentrate on swimming for the moment.Row: 10min @ 21spm, 2445m
R: 5min @ 6kmh, 5min @ 10kmhKnees weren’t up o much running tonight.Had a weekend of splurging on food. Went to Oh Calcutta for dinner on Saturday night, with Tom, Sean, Kevin, Mal and a few others. It has won the Best Indian Restaurant in Sydney for most of the last 10 years. Lots of nice food with a really nice goat curry for a main. Then on Sunday it was Michael’s birthday, so Jacqui’s family and me went down to Doyles in Watsons Bay for a seafood extravaganza. Doyle’s is a Sydney institution, so only the best food for me this weekend. Will probably have to a bit extra in the gym this week to try and make up for it ;-)
Last night…
R: 3 * 1km @ 10, 10.5 & 11kmhS: 8 * 100 on 2:00, Avg: 1.21, 200 easyFelt good in the pool. Again, wasn’t too crowded so I didn’t have to stop every length. Run was easy enough too, though calves are still a little sore. Had intended getting up for the gym this morning, but I couldn’t get to sleep last night and was just too exhausted when I did wake up.R: 9km – S: 3200mLast night…
Weights: Upper body only, 1 * 12 & 1 * 10.Golf: Driving RangeDecided not to run as my calves were still a little sore. Did uppper-body only weights as my legs are getting enough exercise from the running. Upped the weights by 5kg all ’round too. Went for a blast at the driving range with Tom afterwards and sprayed balls all over the place. Still quite a lot of work to do on the swing ;-)Last night:
R: 3 * 1km @ 10, 10.5 & 11kmhS: 100 – 200 – 300 – 300 – 200 – 100m @ ~1.29 paceGot a lane to myself in the pool which was a bonus. Didn’t have to slow down behind people or spend ages at the wall waiting for a gap that would allow me to swim more than a length without catching someone. Calves are a bit sore today after the run. Could have over-stretched them, so will probably just do weights tonight.Back to the gym last night…
R: 3 * 1km @ 10, 10.5 & 11kmhS: 5 * 200mBoth felt good. The swimming felt a lot better and there might be the beginnings of ‘feel’ coming back.
