Decided not to run yesterday, an easy day. Slept in after an exciting night at work on Saturday night. Heaps of people about in the city making the night well worth working.
We went to Pialligo in the afternoon to buy some apples, then over to Stromlo to watch the rally cars churn up the dirt and dust on our monthly handicap course.
Today I went out for an early run as I had an appointment with Maria for a massage at 11:00 am. The rest day and the need to not be out too long meant a quick run. Conditions were good, cloudy with no wind as I ran down to Pine Is and back. Very quiet on the roads and tracks, a couple of people walking their dogs. All very friendly, and sometimes the owner spoke as well.
Then to Maria for a massage, to punish, she likes inflicting pain. That nice pain that doesn't hurt, until she finds a sore spot, then oh, ah, that's the spot !!
I find I need two full days before the benefits are felt, so five days out from SFT will be perfect. She found no problems, except my ITB's are tight, but not causing a problem, glutes are sore on the top part, that's back related from siting too much. Nothing else, ready and primed for the start line at SFT.
Weather forecast for Katoomba this week is showers, so Nellie's Glen will be slippery. Otherwise Coxes River is about thigh height, no need to swim, just be careful of a shoe full of sand.
