Note

Stooopid knee's still a bit sore from Wednesday. No running for a while, but got my rx for an MRI now.

Strength (Home Gym +) 1:00:00 [2]

Workout 3 + leg strength.

Cycling 3:00:00 [3]

Off to Albion to meet Coach LD for a really great full tour, then another loop of the technical trails with Rocky. At the one corner that I can't get around, Rocky hopped off and attacked the obstacles until it was ride-able. Don't mess with Rocky!

Back home, and a final small loop with Bulletdog.

Great biking and company!

Cycling 2:30:00 intensity: (2:00:00 @1) + (30:00 @3)

Biked down to meet Rocky and Slowrunner at HStation for a nice social ride down to Inglewood and back.
Drier than yesterday!

Cycling (Commute) 1:00:00 [2]

Commute to work and back on the Omega, then back on the big bike to and from the Bike-o.

Knee's a bit sore from my little run yesterday. I suck.

Cycling (MTBO) 1:24:00 [3]

CN Bike-O in Palgrave. Off to a good start with nav working well, but in the cold pouring rain my rx glasses were completely fogged and my chain snapped.

Still managed to clean the course under the time limit pretty much by braille, and loved it!

Thanks to Rocky and her assistant Dunc for setting this up, and for standing in the rain waiting for us. Good thing your jacket is bright blue or you'd have been recumbent pizza at the bottom of that steep hill ;)

Strength (Link+) 1:00:00 [2]

Link workout. A bit easy on some of the leg stuff, but did extra hams, glutes and other stuff according to Dr Billy and Bash.

Running hills 55:00 intensity: (30:00 @3) + (25:00 @4)
shoes: Brooks CP4 Yellow

Off for a run on nice soft ground, hitting all the hills of Palgrave. Legs felt light and fast, but I had to pull the plug early when the knee hurt in the usual spot after about 45 mintues.

Note

The hills are alive with the sounds of Morel hunters. Saw a few folks in Palgrave, but their quarry was scarce.

Running (Commute) 25:00 [2]

Easy run home with the Bulletdog in the dark.

Note

Ultrasound results back- pretty vague- areas of inflammation in both medial (1.1cm) and lateral (1.9cm) compartments of the bad knee, and there's a lesser amount on the lateral part of the "good" knee too.

Popliteal Fossae appear normal and there is no evidence of joint effusion on either side. X-rays normal.

So, no clear diagnosis of a flap or tear that's an easy fix. 7 months since I hurt it, and it's *somewhat * better.

Ordered some Five Finger KSO Treks today.

6 PM

Cycling (Trainer) 45:00 [3]

Cold and rainy out, and a big load of dog goodies to drive home from work, so I watched the Giro get cold, rainy and snowy on the Queen stage.
7 PM

Strength (Core) 20:00 [2]

Finished up the Hard Core DVD

Running (Commute) 35:00 [3]
shoes: Salomon XA Pro 3D wide

Had to detour back as they've put up a barrier on my route past Bulletdog's swimming hole. Still feel the knee a bit.

Strength (Core) 20:00 [2]

Cycling 3:15:00 [3]

Great bike ride with Leanimal and Goose up by Hardwood and Horseshoe.
Chilly with snow-covered forest to start, but it thawed out and so did we. Lots of singletrack and doubletrack, still tons more trails to explore.
