  1. Sorry I've been absent, friends! I've taken a big step back from social media recently in order to spend more time with my darling partner, exploring this amazing country in which we hav... read more

  2. RUN
    good Kingsford, Coogee, Randwick, ... 19.5 km

    Oh, hills. How I loathe thee. I stacked about 8 km of steeeeeeep and long hills at the beginning of this run. Yikes. I somehow made my way through them! It was pleasantly drizzly and overcast ... read more

    great To and from work 8 km

    Forgot to log my morning run, so I'll do them together here. They were both lovely! I took an unplanned rest day yesterday for no other reason than I didn't feel like running and though... read more

  4. RUN
    great CBD -> Kensington 7.3 km

    It was pleasantly overcast this evening, making for some lovely running.

  5. RUN

    Why can I not remember that running later = hotter temperatures? A sunny one into work this morning! Legs are still a little heavy from the weekend, but I'm hoping they'll work out thei... read more

      And only getting hotter for the next few months. Can you start and finish work earlier?

      Oh, yes, I can go in/leave anytime I want, really! I just always end up lolling around the apartment, eating breakfast, chatting with my partner, forgetting I need to get out there before it heats up!

  6. RUN
    great CBD -> Kensington 6.84 km

    Legs were a little heavy from our hiking extravaganza on Saturday, but I can't really complain--my knee is all better and my times are improving. Life is good when running is good, no? :)

    great Blue Mountains near Katoomba 18 km

    Spent 9 hours today in the Blue Mountains. We think it was around 18 kilometres, but it was probably more. We went down the Ferber Stairs (1000+ stairs), out to Ruined Castle, back past the stairs... read more

  8. RUN
    good Kingsford, Coogee, Randwick, ... 18.8 km

    My knee injury messed up my last three weeks of running, so I took it really easy on this long run--walked up most of the big hills and stopped for water a couple times. Holy heat, hills, and humi... read more

      A great plan well executed. Summer wear is definitely needed over the next 3 months :)

    alright LivingWell 1100 m

    Short shake-out swim. The pool was delightfully empty, but I didn't have more than 1100m in me, for some reason. It wasn't a physical limitation; it was mental. I was crabby and couldn&#x... read more

    great CBD -> Vintage Cellars 3.2 km

    Lovely run from work to the wine shop--bought some wine to celebrate the end of election season! Another fantastic run!

  11. RUN
    good Kensington -> CBD 4.35 km

    I went runnnnninnnnngggg! Woohoo! Well, I ran a little of it. My knee felt GOOD, so good, but I didn't want to get too excited and blow the thing up again. I know I've got to take it ... read more

    good Trainer @ home 00:45

    So, I didn't run again today. The knee is getting better, but I wasn't ready to risk it yet. Another 15-minute warm up, 15 minutes at target HR, and then 15-minute cool down. I'm ... read more

    Another place-holder spin for my absent running. Hope to be running tomorrow!

    good Into the City and back 11 km

    I'm making major developments in my knee pain saga (had to fix some stuff with my shoes to make my feet happier, and my knee is almost better!), but it's still too soon to run. So, my pa... read more

    Running is still a no-go for me, but spinning feels just fine. I did a 15-minute warm-up, 15 minutes at target HR, and then a 15-minute cool-down. It was pretty much awesome. :)

  16. swim
    good LivingWell 2350 m

    Swam on the lunch break--hopeful it will get the blood flowing to my quads and knees so I can run again soon. The pool was hopping for some reason; usually it's dead on Thursdays. I had to s... read more

    blah CBD -> Kensington 4.4 km

    While I had no pain in my quads sitting at my desk all day, as soon as I started running home, even after a warm-up, my knees started acting funny again. The kneecaps are unstable and they move in... read more

      That doesn't sound good, Ali. May be time for some exercises focusing on those quads before you have a serious knee issue.

  18. RUN

    I did about half walking, half running this morning. The pain in my knee had migrated out of the knee and into the quad this morning, so even though my MAF times were fine, it felt a lot harder to... read more
