Back to the Grindstone

10km run, or rather a 7km run with the last 3km walk/jog/sprint...

Cruel conditions out there tonight, especially around the prom (for obvious reasons) TC1 3:08, 12:15 & 18:30, 22:05 & 26:10, 29:05, 32 & 32:42 & either 38 or 39 something at turn but doesn't matter as I'd to stop due to my knee.

had 2 weeks holidays from work so that was nice, & got a new road bike, carerra Zelos - a nice change from my old creaky Hybrid... get's me in to work now in 15 mins & 12 mins out (7km journey) - happy days.

had cycled friday (29.5km - house to moycullen (12km) to barna to home), cycled to work sat & sun & run tonight (wed)

Just really tired today, had to stop the run at 7km as my knee wasn't letting up & instead of getting better during the run (as it used to do for me), it actually got worse, so to avoid injury - I'd to walk for minute or so, then run again, I walked then for another minute then at dr mannix I went full leather for home only to end up pulling up just before the last bend home due to the knee again...

Very frustrating, but I wasn't terribly bothered as I wasn't in the mindframe for hard running this evening, the bad weather didn't even bother me really, I'm just not that motivated to run these days as I have a lot of very important decisions to make in my life away from the track...

will do a fast 6.7km on friday & see how the body feels & perhaps a cycle tomorrow, my folks are in the middle of buying property so I'm gonna see if I can sneak in a cycle before we head out to view it in the afternoon..
