2/3 TOP this morning, with 3 of those fantastic climbs thrown in :)
Tigger Tor race for me yesterday, 9miles and about 1800' climb. Ate far too much protein type food the night before, and really felt it on the first hill. Then I went flying on a patch of ice, and now have a purple big toe and knee :(
Amazing how much more energy you use up if you're limping a bit, I felt pretty close to blowing up a couple of times and had to walk for a few minutes on the flat.
Took me 1hr25.45, I was originally hoping for sub 1hr30 so I'm pretty happy, but my normal running partner (who is a bit fitter than me, but slower on the desents) did just over 1hr20. Even worse, Keith from winter mondays beat me by a couple of places, and then went off to play a game of hockey!
No running tonight as my toe's still purple, but should be back on the treadmill Tuesday, and the hills Wednesday.
My toe is purple as well Paul, stubbed my toe and went down hard, my rear is an interesting colour also:oQuote:

Brown?
Oh dear, purple toes and "interesting" rears! :eek: Not good!
Running - what's that then? :(
Have my running kit with me today and so if I get time later then I will be off out for a little explore :) (roads though :rolleyes: )
Have ?fun? I'm officially banned from running tonight (my better half's a paramedic, wich is handy for getting injuries checked out, but gets me very little sympathy and she has told me not to be so stupid...) but might manage a quick trip out with the dog.Quote:

Really adds weight to your climbs and works your thighs very hard. Couldn't do burpees afterwards as a result. Will do D3 tonight.
D3 of pull ups done at work (and 10 underarm pull ups each time I've gone for a drink from the machine) and made up for the fail on D2 t'other day.
Am doing something rather longer than my usual stuff at the end of April :DQuote:
