Progressive effort.
Bike was a tester. Looking to start commuting to work on a bike. Its 15 miles each way, i want to be able to do it in an hour each way. Should help build a good Aerobic base and cross training to assist the the running. Maybe start twice a week for a couple of weeks and see if I can build it up from there. Any advice welcomed.
RE: To race is but a dream... - TheEd - 13-03-2020
Hi there Daz, re: biking .. you need to get used to 'spinning' in a low gear so as not to have a counter-effect on the running, especially between day 3 to 8 .. saddle height etc is most important
consider swimming for recovery (if possible and allowed re: covid-19)
good luck TheEd
RE: To race is but a dream... - shadydaz - 13-03-2020
what in spinning in a low gear? gearing so the legs are working fast but not hard?
RE: To race is but a dream... - TheEd - 17-03-2020
Hi Daz, I would like to make the recommendation to all, to cutback on intense training during the COVID-19 outbreak. (I shall copy & paste this to all) .. Take your previous 6 x 1km session highest heart rate reading and during this period of training keep the pulse at least 5 to 10 seconds below that high heart rate reading. We can introduce different training sessions so we can all maintain our training cycles, however we should not over test our bodies so that it weakens our immune system. Please ask more questions if necessary.

A bit of taping and determination and I have managed to complete my first full intended distance since the half. Taping has indeed helped the groin, a bit of youtube research and self diagnosis to isolate the exact issue has meant the taping has been applied reasonably accurately and well enough to be effective.
Excuse the budgie smugglers i put them on especially for the photos to show as much taping as possible. I have gone up and around the spot and across and around from the inside. tape has been applied with on some stretch directly around the target area:

Groin still just about holding together!
I was going to try and replicate the daily commute on bike, morning and evening from today but we have been restricted in the UK now too, so for now will just be sticking to the evening outdoor excercise regime. I'm going to try a 10km easy tonight and then a ride afterwards, combining the two still counts as one continuous effort if done back to back without actually returning inside the house, right!!

" alt="" title=""> if it works, it works eh
" alt="" title=""> if it works, it works ehDespite a persistent HIGH RHR I am generally feeling ok, not quite 100% but ok, will see if can get some good base mileage together and start to build up again over the next few weeks. Am about to go out for an hour, will update later.
Stay safe,
Darren
