Progress is good :-)

Wow. Time is flying by at the moment.

Monday
Rest

Tuesday
AM - was supposed to run but due to an alarm clock operator error, I missed out. Bugger; I am really enjoying my running at the moment. And with the end of FY approaching, I had no chance to do it after work. On the glass half full side, I got more sleep.
PM - massage

Wednesday
AM - 37:30 bike session
Included 5 x 1m standing / grindy / hill-type repeats with 30sec recovery (ouchy) while watching the latest Everest - Beyond the Limits 2 episode :-)

Thursday
AM - easy 35min run - 4.09l - av. 7:10m/k - 142BPM
Slightly faster again than last Thursday's run over largely the same course (it's working, it's working!). My average pace on the flats seems to be settling around 6:5x actually but as soon as I so much as look at a hill, incline or false flat, it spikes. Hardly surprising really. Thinking about it today, the first 3 years of my running 'career' were injured plagued and even when I was running, I avoided hills. No wonder I am so inefficient on them now. My time will come :-)

PM - 60mins PT session
Lots of hard stuff - my PT commented that he didn't think he'd seen me ever 'glow' so much before ;-)
- 5mins w/u
- 20 x indescribable lunges - let's just say it was a kind of lunge /balance / oblique exercise all rolled into one which also used a step, one of those wobble cushion things, a (wooden) disk and a medicine ball. Phew.
- 20 x squats + shoulder press with DB
- 20 x push-ups on DBs + single arm DB row
- 20 x rotating / oblique / shoulder roll thingy on a swiss ball

repeated x 3 followed by stretching.

Rest day tomorrow before another big weekend of training. Bring it - and the end of the financial year - on.
