No running yet, but the hamstring is starting to feel better. Didn’t want to risk going for a run today, so it will be Tuesday before the next run. This weekend was Bella’s first walk after receiving her final booster vaccination last week. So tonight we had a few short intervals testing out her running [...]

It’s raining…are you mad?
It has been raining steadily here for over 24hrs now, which is a change, so when I was getting my running gear ready last night before bed the following conversation occurred:
TFMS: “Are you Running to work tomorrow?”
Simlin: “Yep”
TFMS: “But it’s raining.”
Simlin: “It might be raining on May 20th, need to practice”
TFMS: “But won’t you get [...]

‘burbs Running
It looks like many people are like me and leaving their SMH half long runs to the last minute either that or, as 2P would say, the are sandbagging. Thanks to the ANZAC Day middle of the week holiday I decided to combine my usual run to/from work runs into one LSD and it was [...]

Slow recovery
Legs were definately stiff and tired this morning, so I headed out for a real recovery run. Average pace was over 7min/km as I was just plodding along trying to warm up the legs and work out some of the sore spots. The first kilometre or so was a bit creaky but soon enough everything [...]

Back into the swing of things.
I needed another sleep in yesterday, just one more, but did manage to sneak out for a run straight after work, and the legs were very fresh powering me through 8K at 5.45min/k pace. Even though the legs were fresh the run was a bit of a struggle as I had a stitch pretty much straight [...]

Welcome back to the real World
Sorry to all my regular readers, or is that a bit presumptuous? How about regular checking in’ers? Well I haven’t run or blogged since last Friday. I ran home last friday, 8k due to a detour to the shop to meet up with TFMS and numerous stops to talk on the phone, organising social activities [...]

Social Jaunt
Usual Wednesday routine today, headed out at lunch time for the 5k jaunt around work neighbourhood. This morning I revised my tight hamstring prognosis to groin tightness, don’t ask me how I got all this confused but upon further evaluation it appears to be tight on the inside leg, groin region. Anyway the run seemed [...]
