Triathlon, or how to go the distance

It has been a while since I did anything structured, I wasn’t really sitting on my fat ass really, but nothing in any concerted effort.

The accident last year really got me badly, but that is over now and I started a regular massage appointment and we’re getting the kinks out that I had for years, guess I needed the accident to get past that.

There will be no real training this year, as in, I am not planning on doing any races, but I did join the English Bay TriClub….. So, there should be some training happening once my business trip is over in three weeks…… I am looking forward to it

Billy Talent…. My 16K jog turned in stretches into a tempo run…..

Which then lead to a line of a Greenday Song:

Nice guys finish last
You’re running out of gas
Your sympathy will get you left behind
Sometimes you’re at your best, when you feel the worst
Do you feel washed up like piss going down the drain

Okay, scrap the nice guy, but the rest pretty much was apt. Felt good though….

Off to do laundry.

Run, first time in a while, and it was actually good.

After 7K my really bend back sort of caused some problems, but stretching it out worked nicely and 12K later I found myself back home.

This could be the start of something wonderful.

…. nothing to see here at least until the new year, go, play someplace else.

Feeling really weak…. Need more sleep, a lot more sleep…..

Or a Lobotomy :/

Went climbing, still feeling like crap, I think it’s the aftermath of the concussion. After 30 minutes I was toast and I still haven’t tried out the V10s :/

Didn’t feel so hot today, mainly because of a lack of sleep, still did 30 minutes of weights and it was actually surprisingly fine.

Guess I have to find some more sleep to feel better / stronger and less “swollen up”.

So I went running today, for the first time in a while, 8km in ~35 minutes…. Not too shabby, but it’s getting cold, soon gloves come out again :/

Climbing again today, which was okay, but something is still wrong, felt a bit drained, after 45 minutes in the wall and falling off a couple of times (misjudging distances really doesn’t help) I was done. Underarms on fire and mind drained (okay, it was before that).

I have to declare my love for the new shoes though. They are outright amazing, almost glued to the wall.

Either that, or I am getting better……

Spent 45 minutes today on weights, bench press (legs up), arms, upper body, pull ups…..

The fun part. I felt decently enough, and definetly better after I was done with it, I think my mind is pretty tired right now and of course the body follows :/
