Rest? Day done

Decided to take the advice of others and do a bit of other stuff on non-running days, so ‘rowed’ 2km in 10 mins ‘rode a bike’ for 5 km in 10 mins then did a 3 km walk in just under 30 mins all without leaving the hotel gym! Getting a tad obsessive maybe, but enjoying it at the moment.

Hmmm someone’s building themselves up before returning to the UK! Maybe power straight through to 10K sprinting past me? 🤔☺️

Think it will take a bit more than that to catch up with you my fleet footed friend, and as for sprinting will leave that to you young folk, a reasonably consistent trundle will do me!

I don’t know - think you’re doing brilliantly. Also not sure I’m that much younger than you! So I’ll be out for that 7k this morning once my sons off to school. Hotting up here so not looking forward to it. 🙃 Have a great rest of your day.

Those "Sitting Down" Sports are the best, eh? :-)

It’s so nice to shake things up with a bit of cross training. Impressive that you’re motivated while you’re away too.

I do circuits in the park on Saturday and hoping to squeeze in some swimming and yoga on rest days too 😎
