    I had some pain in the right side of my torso when doing sprinter sit ups. I’d hoped for slightly quicker in the 60m runs but a few were 7.85 so progress is being made. Also reassuring to have my broad jumps go up a few cm each week.

    I skipped nordic curls because it was too cold in the gym, also too cold to sprint today. It was 6 celsius in lycra shorts and I found myself concerned about hamstring strains as I couldn’t keep my legs warm enough. I did some weighted walking yesterday which may have impacted my speed, as well as the fact it was very cold. In future I will wear long lycra as I don’t have tracksuit bottoms.

    4 Dec

    Bike Tempo – 111,212,212,111 (level 5, 100rpm, 135W)
    Hip Mobility (AH)
    A Skip, B Skip, Run A, Run B – 2 x 20m

    The last exercise of hip mobility is actually a single leg calf raise on an incline. I did this session first thing in the morning and the final exercise in bare feet. The arch of my right foot was in quite a lot of pain which may have been due to exercising on a cold surface. I also had a lot of arch pain on the Friday when I did a 25 minute walk with a very heavy backpack in hiking shoes which don’t support my feet enough.

    I’m very unlikely to be racing on the 18th and may not even be sprinting by then.
