Training Log Archive: 'Bent

Morning run with Rocky, Hingo and Vents. Hingo figures he'd better start training for the Navstock Raid next week- and he's doing fine.
Vents was short on ventillation, so he and Rocky headed back at Centreville. I pushed it hard up from the Dingle road up K2 and to the Bruce trail, then back down to catch Hingo who turned back a bit earlier. Nice steady pace home, but I think my legs still feel it a bit from last week!

Workout #3 and some extra shoulder fly work. Elbows a bit sore from paddling yesterday. Whazzup with that?

I took Mike Fekete's "tub" carbon/kevlar sea kayak down to the MCC and paddled there for a bit. It seemed fast to me until the K1s started passing me.
I did a 1km stretch in 6.5 minutes, at a fairly good clip while one of the K1s finished in just over 5min.

Nice boat. Now if I could only decide whether I want a sea kayak I can lift easily with 1 hand, or his faster and lighter Open Water racing boat which I have yet to try...


Note- ran into Hansel biking home. Not literally.

Ride to work with the Bulletdog. We were surprised to meet Hurtin and Hurtin jr (Syd) portaging across the highway over to Palgrave pond, and stopped for a brief chat.

Hurtin's bro-in-law moved into the house opposite the pond- Hmmm, could be handy for commuting purposes if Reddington continues to be difficult.

Scoot home

Last class with the evil Caron this year. Ouch!

Easier than the core today.

Wed AM Albion Hills ride with the gang- Bash, Dunc, Rocky,Ross and LeAnimal.

My big 'bent is still in the hospital, so I rode the little Omega. It's fine on the doubletrack and straight uphills, but it's like riding a bronco on the bumpy bits, and tends to buck the front wheel in the air or try to endo me off. The others were nice enough to wait up for me after the slightly technical bits, but we headed home a bit early rather than push it. Met VO2max on the way home, who had been in pursuit.

Ride to work and back, with extra hill intervals both ways. Bulletdog can't figure them out.

Spin to work and back. The legs are fine for riding.

Active recovery- hike with the hounds. (45 min)
Legs are a bit sore in odd spots, like the top of my right foot. My scrawny calves were tight today too.

Caron's yoga DVD playing on my laptop while I did yoga under the trees.
Dogs watched with amusement.
