Tightarse Tuesday

AM

My legs were heavy and sore today.  Jen said hers were too. 

I ditched my speed session in favour of a hit out on the trails, it was a beautiful morning and I felt like I needed to get some fun back into my running training.   The trails were in good condition, I think the trail fairies might have been doing some work after the recent floods.  The undergrowth had been cut back and that made it easy to pick a spot to land my feet.  I only heard something slithering away once but I did get stung on the eyelid by some unidentified stingy flying insect.  That hurt but it happened at the end of my session so I didn't have to put up with it for too long.

I started at Studley Park and headed north until the steps then turned back and ran the trails all the way to Walmer where I turned around and ran the trails back to Studley Park.

Dist 11km

Jen and I were discussing my uncontrolled inhaling of food in the afternoons in a bid to stay awake and she suggested that I try a recovery powder after my sessions.  I don't know why I hadn't thought of that but I've given it a go for the last couple of days and it does seem to make a difference.  I'll see how it goes at work tomorrow.  Hopefully it will help me lose these kilos that I've put on.

PM  Jeff's without Jeff in my backyard.
