The Distance is Getting Shorter
Today:
Distance: 7.7 km
Time: 42' 32"
Rate: 5' 31" per km
Weather: cloudy, temp 22 degrees, humidity 50%, NW wind at 25 kmph
Week: 40.85 km
Jan & Year: 310.45 km
I have gone backwards this week and I don't know why. Maybe CJ killed part of me last Saturday on those hills trying to keep up, I don't think so, but this week has not been good. I felt really good after Saturday's run, just tired, then the other day's of this week I would rather forget happened. Struggling to get 10 km a day done.
I am having trouble with sore glute muscles on the top of the right side. I have taken a couple of anti inflammatories tonight, a couple more tomorrow. I suspect it is a repeat of bursitis I get every now and again.
It's caused by doing too much too often, a few tablets and an easy week should fix the problem if it is bursitis.
If not, then I will have to ask someone that deals with injuries. Of course it is made worse by siting for long periods of time, so maybe a few days off work will help.
So today with no enthusiasm, I ran/jogged down to the river, found it completely empty, cloudy day and they all stay away. Except for a young couple looking for a quiet spot away from view. Good luck to them.
Spent 15 minutes in the water, a bit cooler than the last few days, seemed to help as well. I will take it easy for the next few days, hopefully by Sunday I will be able to run well enough to catch CJ and Strewth, no chance on Ewen if he fronts. Although he did receive a shift backwards after last November's good run.
But I do want be be right for Monday, good run up Mt Tennent, got to love that.

Not sure. I'm keen on the Stromlo short course though. I'm also scared of CJ, so I might take on the sprinters in the short course, thus avoiding an inglorious defeat at the hands of wonder woman.
