The Good follows the Ugly

I was going to start my runs again tonight hoping to get to the R4K Port Melbourne training run but I had a window of opportunity last night so I seized the moment!  It was a fabulous run at Princes Park!  I was really nervous about doing it as I was still unsure whether my mojo was completely [...]

Is that my Mojo??

We went down the Princes Park for the Carlton Football Club Family Day and I do believe I spotted my mojo   So I am really relieved about that as I was getting a little worried.  Although I didn’t run down there today, I was dressed just in case but decided in the end I should stick with [...]

If you are not in the mood for a bit of negativity, do not read any further as this going to be a whinging whiney post
 I basically have not done a decent run since the 8km Melbourne Zoo run on the 7th February.  I did go to the gym a couple of days ago and [...]

Resurfaced

ramblings
Today is the first day where I have resurfaced and ventured out into the world.  I woke up still with the headache but no nausea thankfully.  I only had to pop one lot of Nurofen so that was a step in the right direction
So I have done absolutely no exercise since that last [...]

Ugly Ugly Run

running
I went for a run last night after finally escaping the clutches of evil family, hadn’t ran since the zoo run and I wished I had stayed home!  I was feeling a little tired but thought once I got out there I would be fine.  I knew even when I was doing my walking [...]

Running with the Animals

Posted by: Lee on: February 8, 2007

Last night I did the 1st of the Sunset Twilight Series.  It was the 8km Melbourne Zoo run and it was totally awesome.  I would have to say this has been by far one of the most enjoyable “fun runs” I have ever done.  I loved every minute of it!  I found the course challenging and running through [...]

Pre Zoo Run

Posted by: Lee on: February 6, 2007

I thought I would write one more post before tomorrow.  I have done absolutely nothing since my last run on Sunday.  Rested exactly as planned.  Then why have I got these really sore calves??  I don’t know what’s going on but they are so stiff and sore, especially today.  I am thinking maybe its the new [...]

Slogging it out

running
I absolutely slogged it last night while running.  I think the main reason was because I was really tired.  I managed to finally complete 5km around Princes Park but jeez, it was a grind.  I thought once I got out there I would be right but it just didn’t happen for me.  Everything was aching and [...]

5km and all is well

running
I ran 5km at the Tan last night and I think I can safely say all is well.  It was a little warm but I managed to have enough zoom left for last 200m for a quick sprint (5.10 pace).
The Tan trials were finishing up when I got down there.  It was when they were on last [...]

Melt down over

running/rambling
My meltdown is over!  The old bod has returned to “normal” just a very, very slight knee niggle.  So I am going to probably do some bike today, must admit I am a bit tired today probably from all the thinking that has been going around in this head of my mine!
I may go for a run tomorrow [...]
