catching up

I've been in Melbourne this week since Monday so will update the very small amount of training I have been doing :)

Tuesday morning I was lucky enough to have tour guide Wobbly man to escort me for an early run from the city up around the Tan. It was great to have the company although I feel for him having to listen to me cough and splutter and whinge about a blister that developed... Thanks mate :) All up we did 65 mins and despite the garmin malfunction telling me that we had done 26kms I think it was more like 9 or 10!

No training Wednesday and this morning my plan was 30 mins indoor trainer followed by 30 mins run (a brick session of sorts). The plan was great until the run when the blister decided that cycling was one thing - but it wasn't happy with the running. So will give it some time so it is good for Sunday which is the Kurnell triathlon.

Plan is to ride tomorrow am. Swim Sat am and the tri (its a sprint) on Sunday. I am getting better cold wise but I'm def still not 100% so will ease back into it... i'm tapering :)

Good luck with the tri on Sunday Ellie. I'm sure you'll be feeling 100% again by then

Try a Johnson and Johnson "healing bandaid" for the blister. We always use them especially with new shoes!

All the best for sunday.

Keep tapering - you're getting good at it ;) That one session with Wobbly will get you through.

How cool is it that we can travel interstate and still have some good buddies to run with!

That cold just loves you and doesn't want to leave. Hope you can shake it once and for all before the weekend.
