Getting back into it...

Mon 1st Feb:
Cross training session that included 15 min tempo on the bike, 10 mins on the rower and a 30 min focusing on upper body strength.
Tues: 40 min easy & glut and core work
Wed: 40 min easy & glut and core work
Thurs:
Morning circuit with Timmy and Durante
I was planning another easy 40 mins with Sam from work when we bumped into Tucks and the boys running 2k reps. I decided to run a 2k rep and surprisingly felt comfortable running 3.35 pace (7.10 rep). I jogged easy for another 2km and then ran another 2k rep avg'ing 3.38 pace. That evening I met up with the boys (Tom, Tucks & Thurston) for a few beers and my left glut was pretty sore. I know it's too early for speedwork and i should have listened to Dave Sweeney...but it's pretty hard to hold back
Fri & Sat: Some easy cycling with some glut and core work and lots of stretching.
Sun: Gym session - weights, core, gluts, ecliptir and bike
Mon: Too busy at work so nothing...
Tues: 35 mins easy, will be interesting to see how I recover but felt fine on the run. Stretched plenty afterwards...
Great to see District 9 grab an Oscar nomination. I really enjoyed that movie. I'm hoping there are no prawns in Jo'burg when I get there in March.
