Track
Decided to join the boys at the track tonight, only to do a 5 mile plod but always good to catch up with the lads. New young kid Fraiser and Alex have joined the group since I've been on a tartan sabbatical and look like good talents. Will be good to train with them soon (hopefully). DC was there and first time I've seen Ed in yonks so nice to catch up. He's in same boat as me - comeback kid and hopefully we'll be back on the 3 x 3k route soon enough.
The boys knocked out easy 600's in about 1.50's which is flying right now and I set off for a plod around St Ives. Started with a 7.01 mile (wow) and calf was a bit grumbly. Stopped to stretch just before 2 miles (7.24) and then came back in 7.40's for around 37.30 for about 5 miles.
Not bad, HR too high (getting to 162 bpm on the inclines) but to be expected off only cycling and good to be able to work at Marathon HR easy enough.
Good stretch afterwards, ice and rolling when I got home and a warm bath. Calf doesn't feel too bad and potentially may do another short jog tomorrow (maybe 15 mins and 15 mins TT) but I'll decide later. May try and get to St Ives to watch the races as loads are running and do some jogging with boys on their warm ups and cool downs.
Big day at work today. Lots of meetings and getting things sorted and a phone conference with Google. Plenty happening to keep busy but hopefully ease up last year as talk of doing an Ironman since Andy finished is gathering momentum :)
