Fat Adapting in the Heat is Hard
I got home from work to another hot afternoon and, grudgingly accepting I needed to get out and run, decided to wait until it cooled off a little, finally getting out around 4 pm at Pooh Corner. I intended to go a bit longer today but the legs were still dead and it was apparentlyContinue reading “Fat Adapting in the Heat is Hard”

A Brisk Hot Walk
A combination of heat, smoke haze and fatigue saw me ditch my proposed run when I got home after work. Temp was mid 30 degrees Celsius (edging close to 100 degrees F for our Imperial friends) and the prospect of running in that temperature in smoky conditions seemed like a ticket for trouble. I hadContinue reading “A Brisk Hot Walk”

Accidental Recovery Day
I’ve ended up doing no additional exercise. Work ended up going into overtime and to be frank I’m feeling it a bit after some pretty strong efforts over the last few days. Sleep’s a bit disrupted so I think we’ve got some adaptation thing going on. I’ll probably go for a brief walk after dinnerContinue reading “Accidental Recovery Day”

Weights, a Run and Pilates
Pulled up a little sore from the race plus work yesterday, but nothing beyond DOMS so no particular concerns. Outside of the calves and some glutes stuff stood out. I had a Rostered Day Off today, so ran some admin and household chores before hitting the gym mid-morning doing my Abs, Back and (some) ShouldersContinue reading “Weights, a Run and Pilates”

BRRC 10 km
Started Sunday with the first road running race I’ve done in a few years. I rejoined the Brisbane Road Runners on Saturday afternoon which was probably asking a bit much of their membership system ahead of the first race of the year on Sunday. So I ran with the field, but didn’t really take partContinue reading “BRRC 10 km”
