Training Log Archive: 'Bent

20+30+20+30 push-ups.

Nice run from the Dingle through Glen Haffy with Bazingadog. He was a good running mate on leash, except when we saw 2 deer bound away and he hopped 2M in the air trying to see them.

Still a few knee and hip flexor issues, but a pretty decent run with much in the 4-5 min/km range , despite many dog-related stops and some very slippery leaf-covered footing.

Time to move a garage-full of boats to where they hang in the shed, and to extract the ww canoe for Sunday's BF50.

Workout 1 + kb and full foot/ kneehab.
10-20-45-30 push-ups and 7-6-5 pull-ups. Why aren't these getting the slightest bit easier?

C • Tell me if you find out... 10

Core class

Yoga went better this time- more knee friendly, and my legs are recovered.

Run home with Bulletdog checking out some new trail construction and the old Rollercoaster trail, with 100 push-ups en route.

C • Sounds like best commute.... 7

Too hurricaney out to run to work. Lots of tree-toppling gusts.

C • Sweet 3

Out running the hounds- got in just before the rain started.

I've wanted to see if I could jam a 650 B rearwheel into my 'bent. Wanted to try it on a day with tricky conditions, and today was perfect. Crash has a 650b and it fit into my bike perfectly without any adjustments at all. I rode the Palgrave singletrack with it and pretty much cleaned everything, probably better than I would have with my regular wheel. I wondered if it would be worse on tight turns, but apparently not when it's the same wheelbase. The fat tire and bigger wheel roll over logs nicely.

Damn, now I have to see if I can source one of these on eBay, or get a new rim, spokes and tire. Crash's wheel is a touch lighter than mine too, with identical tubeless tire setup.

Foot/kneehab, 20-45-45 push-ups , Link workout + some core, 10+8 pull-ups.
