Went for a decent run yesterday with Sime, Keitho, and Pete. Jacqui rolled up but had to leave and do a run later, cos there was no way to secure her bike.
By decent, i mean at least 13km, according to the amount of time spent on our feet! Keito reckons we clocked around 15km. A bit too much of a ramp-up for me - given that i am just getting back the mileage again from the buggered right foot tendon - so i'm taking today easy... gym is still on the cards, but i may give it a miss if the bike repair session with Lenny goes into overtime.
Good news: i only need to clock 15-18km more for the remainder of this week. I'll do a reasonably long run of 10km on thursday, then maybe a trail session on the saturday, recovery on sunday. Incorporation of fartlek and speed stuff i can do from tuesday onwards.
And the swimming... or rather lack of it due to nasty injuries. i gotta say my scabbing is progressing pretty well so far. The gruesome loss of skin on my left shoulder is already being replace by a healthy pinkish replacement layer under the lightest scabs. The elbow portion is still pretty crusty and hard, but should come away by sunday. Hopefully, can resume wet activities on Monday.
In the meantime, i'm hiding the damage under lon-sleeved tops and jackets draped over my left arm.
