Friday – 40 min run, around 6,5km. Felt fine, worst of the cold is definitely over. Knees hurt a bit, I think it has to do with the camber of the paths I’m running on in and around Surbiton. I need to find some flat paths….
Saturday – 1:15 min run, around 12km. Bronson and Leo joined me for a run around Richmond park. Felt a little tougher as the park is quite undulating. But the knees felt better as the paths are pretty even. Bronson huffed and puffed his way around pushing Leo in his jogger. You could tell how unfit he is because when we finished the run, his average heart rate was more than 10 beats higher then mine…hee hee
Sunday – 2:30 min, 65km bike ride out to the Surrey hills. Went down to the meeting point for the Sunday ride, only to discover there weren’t too many plodders. So decided to take my chances with the faster group. But turned out fine, managed to keep up no probs. I found the hills quite tough as my lungs have not fully recovered from the cold. Was like having a 40-a-day habit and trying to cycle. I decided to not be too much of a hero and just get up the first big hill, a road known as Staples Lane. I was really huffing and puffing on that hill, but I got up in the end, without using the granny gear…yippee for me. Had a small rest then turned back. So a bit shorter route maybe but with more hills so that’s gotta be good for something!!!
So the week was almost salvaged…now to see what week 4 looks like…
