    great Sun came out! 15.48 mi 01:19 11.7mph pace

    Sun came out again. Yay... almost felt like it was actually spring!

    Went for a ride with a buddy, took it pretty easy and just enjoyed the sunshine.

    good School run. 2 mi 00:09:40 12.4mph pace

    Very wet and windy out today. Nothing much to say about this. Rode up to the school and back. Haven't been able to get out for the past couple days, as I've been stuck in waiting for peop... read more

    good Nowhere special 3.89 mi 00:38 09:43 pace

    Just a normal run. Felt fine. Glad to have been able to get out. Things have been pretty busy lately.

    great Lost the plot... 20.93 mi 01:42 12.4mph pace

    Ok... so... I've ridden a total of 47mi on this bike before today... I haven't ridden a bike since I was a kid... and today it appears I went for 21mi in one go... At some stage I kinda l... read more

    great Almost normal! 3.87 mi 00:38 09:43 pace

    First mile was a little rough. Still felt the ache in my chest, but not as bad as yesterday. Once I was properly warmed up I barely noticed it. A slight dull ache on exhale, but that's about i... read more

    alright Better than last time? 3.12 mi 00:32 10:21 pace

    Had a bit of a break between rains, so thought I'd try a run.

    Same aching as last time, but it took longer before I noticed it, and it was considerably dulled. Enough to be manageable today. ... read more

    injured Run doomed... 0.97 mi 00:09:13 09:30 pace

    Apparently this run was not destined to happen. I was planning to go over the weekend, nice long run, 10-12 miles. Unfortunately Friday evening I started getting ill, and didn't really recover... read more

      Speedy recovery. Sounds like you made the right choice not to carry on!

    good Maypole dance 2.12 mi 00:11:30 11.1mph pace

    Eldest was doing a Maypole dance thing today, so I rode out to see him.

    Just a short ride, but was interesting, as I found out I can ride home as quickly as drive. Even with lots of start/stop wh... read more

    good Hill Repeats 2.75 mi 00:28 10:16 pace

    12 trips up/down a nearby overpass. My Garmin really struggled to figure out how high the hill actually was... I'm estimating about 75ft climb over about 400ft distance. Not the steepest or lo... read more

    Running along one of the nearby lakes. The white petals were almost flowing from the tree. It was really quite fantastic.

      Blossom is just stunningly beautiful. We have cherry, blackthorn and crazy early apple blossom, clouds of optimism.

    Went out for a fairly easy run today. Started off a bit faster than I had planned, but I was feeling good. Overall it'd have been a pretty reasonable pace, but I had to make a couple stops. Th... read more

    good School Run 1 mi 00:09:40 09:39 pace

    Typical school run. Managed it without sweating much, so my kid didn't have to be the one with the stinky dad.

    Calves are tender from the cycling. I have to assume that's what it's ... read more

    good Same ride around. 7.86 mi 00:35 13.3mph pace

    Pretty much the same loop as before. Skipped the nasty overpass, and tossed in an extra hill for good measure.

    Adjusted seat height, which made a pretty big difference. Otherwise, just enjoyed mys... read more

    good Huff huff puff... 7.77 mi 00:36 12.9mph pace

    Past few rides were relatively simple compared to running. Today I thought I'd push myself a bit harder and aim for 13mph. Killed myself at the very beginning with a stupidly steep overpass (t... read more

    good Ride about. 7.59 mi 00:45 10.0mph pace

    Out for another ride. Went with a buddy this time, so was going a bit slower.

    Ass still a bit tender, but not as bad this time around. Definitely hitting muscles more than cardio, barely broke a s... read more

    blah Blah. 3.2 mi 00:31 09:48 pace

      Pretty good! I find it difficult to hit a certain pace on short intervals.
