Tuesday 13 June - oh my poor butt part 2
Iyvengar yoga class at lunch. Really enjoyed it – so did my glutes ;-)
I booked my flights for the GCM tonight. I’m hoping to get my bike to Qld so I can ride up and down the course cheering - oh, and so I get my exercise in for the day ;-) I had thought about taking it on the plane with me (and no, not in my carry on luggage) but I've just realised that I'll be heading straight to the airport on Friday from the office & then heading straight into the office on Monday morning....Mmm, will have to think about it. Oh yeah, and I’ve entered W2G….
Wednesday 14 June - oh my poor butt part 3
My upper body - and butt - are sooo sore from yoga yesterday. Excellent - definitely going back to that class next week :-)
It’s now been a week since I ran. Yikes. 10 days to W2G to go. Yikes. I’m sure all the time I’ve spent on my bike will help to maintain my fitness. I guess my real concern is that I’ll get my tib-ants & calves to behave just in time to run W2G – and then trash them all over again. Oh well, I’ll deal with that later ;-)
To give my legs another few days off, I decided to head into the gym this morning for a cardio session on the bike today (I gotta get me a windtrainer...). A CJ-inspired session for 40mins on the bike:
5min WU
5 x 1mins intervals (L7 @ 110RPMs) with 1min recovery
5mins @ L7 @ 90RPMs
repeated twice
5mins CD
Geez CJ, that was nasty – but fun. 17.48kms in total & 30mins stretching to finish. Phew.
A rest day tomorrow with a visit to Saint Andrew before heading out for an easy run on Friday morning...

You could be talking another language to me with 'bike talk' - but it sounds like fun anyway! :)
Hiya Jen,
I have a mountain bike you can use if you want? Nothing flashy like yours and miners bikes but it has two wheels!!! It is a mens one but adjustable seat etc. Anyhow it is already here in QLD to save any hassles about travelling with yours if you choose.
Ha ha, I was going to comment and suggest borrowing a bike and I saw Clairie's message.
Can't wait to catch up again. Its gonna be fuuuunnnnn :-)
