Covid-19 and keeping fit
-
first run in 2 weeks last night. 10km. Music was a bit quick, so at one point i looked at my watch and was running at 4 mins per km. I wasn't able to keep that up for long.
Conditions were just perfect. Still, about 19 degrees. A really enjoyable run

@mariner4life flying!

Fucking hell, I already knew I was the world's slowest swimmer and now after seeing the times you guys a running I am starting to think I am the world's slowest runner as well!

@Crazy-Horse don't you try and take my title.

Piss off Bones, you know you're not hopeless. You're just mediocre. And don't you ever let anyone tell you different.

right so, despite the last week being a serious blip, I'm back to 60 kilos, and around 15 cigs a day which is way down on my usual intake. Coffee is still around 10-12 mugs, but I've almost cut out all the sugar. Eating a shitload of bread though. Packing away genuine curries (none of that westerner palate shit either). Even managed not to eat a whole box of muesli in three days.

I used to road bike a bit, but was never committed as I hated the early morning starts and commitment to 3-4 hours in the saddle.
Mountain biking seems a better option, you can go out for 2hrs in the middle of the day and still get a safe workout.
Will def get into it when I get back to Sydney

So I've figured out why my calves are giving me grief. Turns out I just need to throw some money at the problem.
This website says to replace them after 300-500 miles, and I've done about 340miles (550kms) in mine - clearly that's the problem!!!

Yep, It's time to change mine as well. The wear in the palm (?) of my foot is getting pretty pronounced

@mariner4life what are you going to get? I'll likely stick with some variation of the Adidas Boost I reckon

Exactly what i have now, Asics Gel Kayano. Need that heel support.
