Walked the walk to and fro from the Post Office, so a bit lighter today.

I walked to town, did an errand & walked back.

Went and ran for first time since last week's race wiped me out. Didn't feel too bad, in fact I took it easy but ended up getting 4 personal bests on various segments of the route, including a hill sprint. Didn't melt either. Turns out last week's race was actually a good training run 😂

According to internet getting some exercise is great for fatigue so I went out for a gentle 4 mile run, didn't fall asleep on the way round which is a start, now a shower will keep me awake at least another half hour. Then doing nothing.

Did a half hour on the rower after work. My cat looking at me like she was thinking: That jackass doesn't get that his boat ain't going nowhere?

I got a 5k walk/jog in yesterday, and the day before yesterday. The steep hllls are getting easier. Might do a 5k event in a couple of months. Maybe.

Phew, what a change from the week that was. After losing my mind half way through last week, and most of yesterday, today I felt calm and clearheaded. Went out for my now regular (done 3x) route down into the valley to the river, then blasted back up the hill and ran hard off the hill so did 4 miles and the last mile was the fastest (I'm usually half dead by the last mile so this is progress!). Just hope it boosts my metabolism and gives me some energy!!

Resting because of a cold.

Took a nap, exercised my snoring.

Did my usual 4 mile run to river and back, felt good on way down but then felt woozy and craving chocolate all the way back, thankfully a reward was waiting for me in the cupboard! 😂

Running all over the building today while at work sure counts. LOL

Shoulders & core work.

Worked out at the gym using machines and free weights, then did a half hour walk in the hot sun. I did eat a raspberry chocolate croissant afterwards though. Had a salad with some nuts for dinner.

4k hills roday

 

[AvidFan]

4 miles with hill for second evening in a row. Nice sunny evening for it, varied running route with a different loop but still went down to the river and then ascended one of the hills. Thought I attacked it hard but was nowhere near my PB. Wait till I have fresh legs though 😂

 

[AvidFan]

Went out planning to do 3-4 miles and just take it easy, took it very easy but my legs felt heavy and it felt like my heart just wasn't in it (literally, like it didn't want to beat any faster). After doing a hill and not enjoying it I abruptly decided to stop and walked the rest of the way home. Sure enough my heart monitor showed my heart wasn't getting up to its usual BPM, no idea what was going on, but I do struggle in warmer weather and it's 25C and humid, probably put it down to that.

5k walk-jog yesterday though it was a little crowded on the track next to the ocean. I guess people are in town because it is a 3-day weekend here. I jogged the 2 smaller hills.
