back to the hill-climb and back to legs
Day | Stats |
---|---|
Distance | 18K |
Time | 4:27 / km |
- WARM-UP: resistance bands on ankle flexion and extension
- PRE-RUN: nil lol
- Q1: laces untied after 1km but breathing settled. bouncing around - form flying.
- Q2: legs beginning to get heavy after hillclimb #3. really dreading it.
- Q3: legs clearing up - the magic 10.5K and feeling motivated
- Q4: couldn’t quite kick to top speed to finish - but legs are back
- Happiness: 8/10
- Shoe: Terrex Ultra (W) 3/3
- Stride: Smooth and feather-like at the beginning - the stamping returned when fatiguing. Hill climb form (as in accelerating on the initial inclimb is non-existent - but will get there)
- Pain: Y
- Where?: Thighs. Left ankle complete loose now.

legs getting stronger by the day. a beautiful run with the sunset. shame about the laces untieing 3x. hands were so cold - i couldn’t fasten them.
The final kick will get back to top speed. Lungs feel clear again - not felt this good in 2 weeks. No chest pain at all.
Although no track tuesday, this was a lovely (and well-needed) substitute.
