Glutes & hip flexors are in very poor condition. Going to try and right them wrongs.

Today might just be a rest day. I've packed my running gear, but I also need to get a present for my Dad's birthday that is today. There's nothing quite like last minute... After logging nutrition for the first time in a while, I wasn't too far off the mark. Just slightly high in the fats category, but ok elsewhere. Need to up the intake of vegies, that certainly has been lacking a little.

  • Calories: 968 From fat:227.82 (25.59g, 23.53%), From Carbs:510.6 (129.06g, 52.75%), Protein:229.58 (58.03g, 23.72%)

Bike
  • 40m
  • 17.00 kms
  • 25.50 KM/hr

Commute. Had some dude sitting on my tail until he canes me on the hill. He could have been home 15 mins earlier had he decided not to sit on my a$$.

Swim
  • 1h 00m
  • 1700.00 meters
  • 03m 31s /100 meters

600 wu
200 kick
8x50 builds
200 easy
4x50 15m sprint,
300 cd

The usual crew weren't there tonight, so I did spend a lot of time chatting to the swim instructor. I did feel a little tired before the session, but I either need to do an extra swim per week or get some distance in before this session.

Back at work, but at least its only a three day week. All the beer, champagne and fabulous food has taken it's toll. I have to start watching what I eat a little closer.

  • Calories: 1640 From fat:238.49 (26.93g, 14.54%), From Carbs:1140.48 (289.71g, 69.54%), Protein:261.03 (66.31g, 15.92%)

November 7

MELBOURNE CUP DAY I had all my eggs in the Pop Rock basket and it came through to place second. I've come out ahead this Spring Carnival.

November 6

Bike
  • 1h 33m
  • 39.67 kms
  • 25.59 KM/hr

Hard work down to Mordi, but flew home. Rode with Kris. Good to have some different company.

There's no where to log lawn bowls... I think I managed to bowl two, the rest of the time working my biceps to lift beer.

November 5

Bike
  • 22m
  • 8.50 kms
  • 23.18 KM/hr

Commute home

Sport
  • Walking
  • 1h 00m

Walked into work to pick up my bike for tomorrows day off. Planned long-ish ride in the morning. Thought better of drinking and riding on Friday night. I wanted to make it to the races Saturday.

Not sure an hour walk was the best thing for my feet that spent all day in high heels yesterday! Pain.

I have decided that my own personal punishment for obtaining a hangover will be exercise. Even if it is a walk. I feel too lazy if I don't do something. While I didn't go that hard at Derby Day, I could be feeling fresher. I am taking tomorrow off for the benefit of a four day weekend, given that Cup Day tuesday is a public holiday. Apart from riding there'll be a bit of lawn bowling and some more drinking all in the name of birthday celebrations (not mine).

November 4

Ooh Derby Day. I managed to keep myself very nice-ish, probably due to still feeling the effects of Thursday's illness...

November 3

Bike
  • 19m
  • 8.40 kms
  • 26.53 KM/hr

Commute with a slight detour to avoid some lights. Legs felt pretty tired.

The rest certainly helped yesterday afternoon. Finally, for the first time this week I have woken up and felt like its time to get out of bed. The gland is down and the throat is better. I probably pushed myself too hard on the way in and could do with a nap now, but it should be nothing a good strong coffee can't help!
