Monday, I went back to swimming with TPT. Session didn't really suit me. Too much single arm work and kicking. Adapted a lot of the session to suit myself. Did 2,250m and a few turns as well. Kick drills don't seem to have done my adductor problems any harm. If anything the workout has loosened it off a bit.
Tuesday I was planning to go for a short hill run, but decided to give the adductor pain another day of rest. It isn't affecting my walking any more but no sense in damaging it further. Went to visit my granny instead.
Movember is still going well.
Wednesday, I arranged to go mountain biking in the dark. Arrived much too early, so decided to sneak in a quick run first. Garmin says 2 miles, but it was out and back and it says 0.8 out and 1.2 back so something is amiss there. Anyway, it was a good 20 minute warm-up before biking. Then biking was good too. Was mostly just a tootle around the fire tracks on Kirkhill but a couple of quick blasts on the way back down were great fun.
Thursday, cinema trip. Gravity. Hard one to assess. It is very predictable, but quite well done. No way it its the oscar qulaity performance that the papers are raving about, but it is worth sitting a couple of hours to watch.
Friday, I was planning to do some of my run miles but the traffic home took nearly 2 hours instead of the usual 20 minutes.
Saturday, no sporting as such, but I did borrow Dexter for the afternoon and we went for a trip to the top of Scolty hill. Claiming it against my run mileage as chasing Dexter up and down a hill is hard enough to be equivalent.
Sunday, the Kintore sunday ride group has restarted for winter. Big turnout this week with 21 bodies at the start. We split into 2 groups and set off. plan was 12 miles as easy groups, then 10 miles of team time trial practice, then 18 miles of group riding back to Kintore. Was a bit chilly to start but was actually a nice day once we were moving. Good starter to longer winter training.
Weight was at 79.5 kg on Sunday. Only just under target, but another success. Good week all in.
