Friday

Thursday: non-run day, just PT
Friday: 1hr as 1:1, very nice, last Paris run for an indefinitely long while. Will do PT once I have eaten and showered.

Have really missed yoga this week, and am not feeling cheery about the fact that June logistics make it unlikely I will be doing it regularly....

Sunday-Wednesday catchup

Sunday: 80 as 20 as 1:1, 40 as alternating 5 easier, 5 faster, 20 as 1:1. Not fun, back very sore....
Monday: non-run day
Tuesday: 1hr as 1:1
Wednesday: 20 as 1:1, 2/4/6/4/2 faster with 2:00 walking recovery between, 20 as 1:1

Just got back from that last one, it went very well - I do still need to walk rather than jog the recovery to let tension in back and along leg release, but it felt pretty good!

Friday: just PT and some walking

Friday-Saturday

Friday was just PT, hardly slept Thursday night and it was a non-run day.

Saturday: nice midday run in TORRENTIAL rain at first and then sunny, 80 mins, 20 as 1:1 to start and finish with 40 as 7:1 in the middle, that is good. Made it back out late afternoon for 90 mins yin yoga (+ 2 x 15 min walking). Rather sore left foot continues to bother me, will pursue medical advice when I am back in NYC. (I am pretty sure I know exactly what it is - I've had a bunion on that foot for a lung time, yes that is the most disgusting word and concept in English, it's getting more pronounced and I think it has elicited Morton's neuroma in the forefoot.)

Wednesday-Thursday

Wednesday: really good run, 80 minutes with 20 as 1:1 to start and finish and 40 as 4:1 in the middle. Everything (except for slightly sore foot) is feeling good. It was a holiday, couldn't go to the office for cleaner exile, got very damp and chilly at the cafe I holed up in, and could not quite get myself back out the door for evening yoga, but I think that's OK.

Thursday: nice 1hr as 1:1. Will go to 7pm hot yin yang yoga barring unforeseen calamity....

Monday-Tuesday update

Monday: non-run day, did quality PT+ before going to the office, then 9pm warm yin (very nice).
Tuesday: 1hr as 1:1 in the "morning" (felt good, no problems, quite strong and smooth); 5pm hot hatha 90. On a good yoga roll right now it seems - I try not to get too obsessive about it, but it might be I can go every day this week.

David has written some good workouts for me over the next few weeks too...

Sunday

OK, that was good. Very nice hour as 1:1 (yin yoga worked magic), then 3pm hot yin-yang (did a few PT stretches while I was waiting for class to start), extremely good.

Friday-Saturday update

Friday: non-run day; did good PT+ before I went to the office, but was too tired by end of day to think yoga seemed like a good idea (also went down rabbit-hole of trying to find something Gibbon cites, took longer than I thought it would).

Saturday: much better, on balance. Had a very nice late morning run (I CANNOT GET UP IN THE MORNING!) in the Luxembourg Gardens, which were mercifully OPEN; it was chilly and rather rainy, my happy running weather, with a lot fewer people than usual. 80 minutes with 20 as 1:1, 20 as 2:1 (no, 3 doesn't go into 20, David thinks not having the numbers all really tailored is something I need to learn to tolerate!), 20 as 3:1, 20 as 4:1. Great way to do it.

Tried a new yoga class and it was GREAT - 90 minutes early evening yin yoga. Got there early enough to do my PT essentials first, but the class, too, was REALLY useful. 2 x 15 mins walk to and from, so I think that is now sufficient, and I intend to spend the evening lying on the couch reading a novel....

Jet lag update

Ugh, the suffering is real - the last few days have been pretty horrible! Did do the essentials but nothing more.

Tuesday: 1hr as 1:1
Wednesday: 1hr with 20 as 1:1 to start and finish, 20 as 4:1 in the middle (tight lower R calf)
Thursday: non-run day, finally did proper PT+ (have been inconsistent in last couple of weeks, illness and travel both make it harder), then 7pm hot ying-yang. Which felt very intense - I was a little queasy a few times in the second half, plus lower calf bothering me on the warrior 1-warrior 2 etc. sequencing - but not completely overwhelming. I mean, I survived, and walked home afterwards with my wits more or less about me!
