Different

Thanks to everyone for your comments - much appreciated :-)

I'm a bit indifferent at the moment in relation to my training. I think its probably obvious that I am a goal-orientated person ;-) so being without a goal is not something that I enjoy. I need to find myself a goal other than one day getting the ok to run again ;-)

My training has also been a bit haphazard this week as a result of a week that was nothing short of an emotional roller coaster for numerous reasons. I haven't trained the last few days as my resting HR has been elevated but until then I did strength + core sessions on Tuesday and Thursday as well as a bike session on Wednesday (45mins @ 60% incl 3 x 4mins @ 80%)

I have a recovery/easy week ahead. Not least because I return to full time employment for the first time in almost 8 months (!) but also because WildEndurance is on next weekend. Although I have had to withdraw from team 'Happy Feet' because of the injury, I will still be heading up there next weekend to crew for the team which should be a good, albeit, tiring weekend. They are hoping to finish the 100k (walking) in sub-24 hours. Fingers crossed!

I am sorry to hear about your injury Jen, I hope you have a faster recovery than what you have stated. Heres to a fun weekend anyway and wish your team the very best in achieving a Sub 24 h result

Hmmm the concept of goals is something I've been thinking a lot about lately - frankly I suspect they are over-rated... I've come to conclude that it is the journey that is important.

I'm reversing my thinking.... I'm doing stuff now because it is who I am and who I want to be - it will allow me to achieve things that others may see as goals.

I should stop standing on my head :)

Awww bugger Jen, so sorry to hear that. I was really looking forward to hearing about it and I am sure you were looking forward to doing it!

How about a bike-related goal? Entries are now open for the Mogo Mtb 50k and 100k in September...
