...whewww thats SOME massage

..legs have been kinda sore last few days-particularly the pereoneals(sp?)

anyway yesterdays was the hardish set of 5mins hard 3 mins break x 4

but before i get to that
monday i did 20mins at 4:55min/km with 2 of stu's little tackers, followed by lots of drills(and hopping and stopping) and walk lunges(slowly) which REALLY hurts and then finish with some planks...only 4x30s plus obliques which is why im surprised to be sore

so tuesday-sore abs and sore quads (from lunges)

head off to pilates.... OMG how sore are my abs after that-VERY F_ING sore is the answer to that question and the legs are pretty dang sore in bits too
so now to my set...lol and there are no excuses i wouldve run exactly the same

...one thing i consistently do: TOO FAST TOO EARLY-naughty miss jo-the efforts were thus;
approx 1.2km @4:08min/km
approx 1.16km @ 4:19min/km
approx 1.16km @ 4:21min/km
and an absolute blowout of a 4th rep
approx 1.1km@ 4:30min/km
first rep way way too fast and boy did i pay for it

then decided back, legs REALLY needed some work so booked in for a 2 hour massage today. ummmmm to say that it hurt is a UNDERWHELMING statement-there were times when i was breathing like i was in labour..lol.. the back was particualrly unpleasant but it means i can bend again(not joking) which is a good thing- i drove an hour to get there-but it was GREAT to see corrie and have a gossip.....
she is also running extremely well(65mins for run4 kids) so im tipping a great AV season for her-hugely improved from last year-getting back to her form from a few years ago

DETOX-have been extremely good-drinking bucketloads of water(which really means the amount normal people drink(im a SHOCKER!!!!!!!)
have only missed the coke ZERO once so i had a sparkling plain mineral water for the bubbles
-felt like a wine last night but im sure thats just habit
-i will be interested to see if i lose any weight or not

My tip for winter is that we will both be looking at the back of Corrie LOL

Keep up the good work, I cracked last night and had a milky way, I had a serious sugar crash when I was at the supermarket.

I know how to cure that: Get Stu to give you a set of 2000, 1600, 1000, 800, 600. That should stop you from starting too fast.
