Rain stops play

Rain washed away any resolve to fetch demonic pony from the common so in the comparative dryness of the workshop

30 mins lvl 15 12.7km hill sprint session

1km "run" 6.5 mins in rain

2km row 8mins 23 seconds

Feel good. Sore left calf.

Overthe hill and far away

Another animal theme to tonight's training, a yomp across the hills to fetch back a naughty pony. This time my cunning plan to head him off at the pass failed meaning I walked for a mile and a half in the wrong direction before turning back and finding him the other end of the common. 1.5 hours 5 miles, last 1.5 dragging naughty horse along.

Bone idle

No training. Bone idle day.

Payback

Had to do something to make up for excess calorie consumption of yesterday and planned binge on Chinese food tonight so shifted a ton of pig muck by barrow from one end of the smallholding to the other. The did the same by hand with straw.

Also

2km row on concept 2 rower 7 mins 59 seconds.

10k bike ride lvl 10/12 on Lifecycle 18 mins 51 seconds

1km run 8 minutes.

Think my run time needs work, again I say run it was meant to be but legs failed to follow orders.

Felt good at end of it. Quads feel sore.

Light Breakfast

Its not looking good, but I am losing weight but not by stuffing my face with breakfasts like this one, and lets not mention the fish and chips lunch and don nut dinner. A day of salad dodging caused by beautiful and oh so patient wife's birthday week. More dietary carnage is on the cards tomorrow with an all you can eat Chinese buffet planned. Managed to get my lardy arse around the Bonsai Mountain in an anti clockwise attempt to at least burn off one donuts worth of calorie.

It still counts!

It looked like no training day again today but finally got a clockwise circuit of the Bonsai Mountain and a weight training session in. There were a few sprint runs, this time after a pea cock and the weight training was shifting a ton of pooh with a shovel. But it still counts.

No gains

NO training, any benefit from running about on the beach was negated ten fold by large quantities of Birthday cake consumed.
