Loving it, heat wave gone, nice dark dingy nights are upon us!!

Done various 4 miles and a beasty 26 mile hike

been out tonight for a chilly run, did 4 miles at fast pace

Got a stitch today, first one in ages, forgot how much they tan!!
Great tip for getting rid of stitches is to stop, breath hard and press with two fingers on the stitch, when it's gone, give it a minute and crack on!!

i tried to run through it for about a mile and half untill I got pissed off with myself and stopped lol

no mate, a stitch is the pain in the bottom side of your stomach when you run too hard or too fast.

Side stitch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

a nice read about stitch

Went to gym for a quickie but ended up there much longer than planned

jumped on a treadmill to check my vo2, basically running for 12 mins and checking distance i did 2.79km

check your vo2 max here
12 Minute Run

I then did 20 mins of hill work, 5% incline running at 13km and fast walking at 7km at 2 minute intervals

Then I trained my legs

FUUUUUUCK it was a good leg workout, straight off the treadmill and my legs were on fire, was leg pressing much more than usual and my 'niggle' in my left calf was practically gone so I could crack on and train them.

Finished off with some arms

Feeling goood

Went to the gym today and trained abs and lower back for 30mins

Was gonna hit some weights and do shoulders but there was a milf on one of the concept 2 rowers, before I knew it I was on the one next to her, big old mirror in front of us

And stroke............ And stroke........... And stroke.......... hahahaha

ended up finishing my workout on the rower, 35 mins

Also fired off a 3.5 mile bag run last night.

Struggling like fuck to find the time to cram sessions in lately

Loving it, job cancelled on me so it was rush free gym time today!!!

Trained my core, working the abs good and proper today
Little bit of chest (incline and flat) and triceps

Then 35 mins hammering the treadmill, full hills prog at 10-15kmph

Then a 10 minute rest and hit the legs

These squats are brutal!!

Really starting to feel the benefit of training my legs more, I'm getting much more out of them when running hills.

Hope everyones good and well, I've not had internet access for a few weeks

I did the brookes hell down south run over the weekend at longmoor militaryu camp.

Made the mistake of going down on the saturday to stop over and get an early start, I swear we were just heading out for a 'few quite ones' and a bite to eat!!!

7 pints of fosters, 1 peroni and 2 magners later we staggered back to the hotel at 2am .

Woke up feeling like utter shite at 8am (had to be signed in to run at 9am!!!)

can honestly say that the worst cure for a stonking hangover is a 12 mile trail run through bogs and hills haha.

Luckily though it was much easier than what I'm used to (oversubscribed to fuck and bottlenecked ques were well annoying, we were near the back due to rolling in late and had to get past all the walkers and people scared of getting dirty)) we managed a repectable time of 2hrs, I spent about 30 mins pissing though due to desperatly trying to rehydrate before the run.

Won't be doing that again hahahaha
