RUN 4 miles out of 5, on the track
BIKE COMMUTE 5.8 miles
PT with JH
I was wiped from the previous three days so I wasn't sure I should have even does this session. But I did and I'm glad I did and I was OK. So HTFU.
My glut meds and other hip muscles had some DOMS yesterday afternoon, and after a period of sitting or not moving they'd tighten up. So why was I on the track today? Because running.
I stuck to my initial plan of 8x 3:30 run/1:30 rest, but kept the effort EZ and the rest at a walk. To my surprise, the Garmin shows sub 9 m/m intervals, and a few close to 8 m/m. My HR logged as low, maybe the watch wasn't snugged?
BE and I chatted, and in talking about his work he mentioned "facilitators", which led me to how TV would call Dr M my "medical facilitator", and then this led me to my story about how BS's MW once commented that "you don't need ribs to ride" (I had broken rib, was at a CX race). (I really got get out of the headspace that relives my injuries...). Anyway, this became a joke for a lap or two, with BE mentioning that God took a rib from Adam, guess Adam didn't need the rib to run. I'm not relating it as eloquently, but the idea is there :)
Later with JH, more upper body and postural stability stuff. Those plank to pike moves on the yoga ball really work the chest and rib muscles, and yeah I need them so God better keep his hands off.
