TheEd,
Hope the work commitment has eased up - hows the weather now? Its been unbelievably glorious here...
Wed: No exercise. V.tired. Had to back off study due to feeling overloaded.
Thurs: 1pm - Hit Forest for MTB session. Approx 30km around Red Route (Intermediate) - body shaking good stuff. Went with work colleague who is trying to regain his fitness. Had to take it a little easy, which was all good for working on technique. Were in saddle for nearly 3 hours.
Felt remarkable strong on the pedals, no probs there at all. So thats encouraging. Concentration was lacking in parts, however technique has massively improved - skills and speed on some of the most technical downhill sections has transformed - however, still a lot of improvement to work on.
Had one fall on the most simpliest corner sections, I always have falls on the most un-obvious stuff. Feel onto left hand - lucky it wasnt a break tbh :whistle: Carried on, had to take it a bit easier.
Wrt the foot/toe issue - its subsides and then comes back. No probs on the bike whatsoever - however walking on it not good. Have no idea whats caused this. Have been wearing in some new Asics Nimbus - but they are super comfy. Cant quite work it out. Will see how is tomorrow - however improvements don't materialise might have to cancel Sundays 10km and get a Physio - will have to see. With the MTB feeling good, will just hit the bike to keep fitness up whilst foot heals - all good!
How's your w/end shaping up? Is Easter over there?
