Nappy rash - Warning: contains running content

6.15 am, 7 * 1 km fartlek circuit, Centennial Park

A rare blog post containing something about running.

Last night I had an early 9.00 pm night and lentils for dinner. If I have lentils again for dinner it might be easier if I wear a nappy to morning training since those red lentils don't sit still for one second. No less than 3 visits to the toilet before the fartlek session started. I used to use vaseline for chafing, not any more.

This fartlek course has 2 strides and 2 floats per 1 km lap. It is a tough but enjoyable session where there's a small degree of freedom to adjust the float and stride speed in the 4 sections of the fartlek. I'm still paying the price for a lazy break last week, but the legs were getting back to normal. Finished in 27.30, 30 seconds slower than last month.

A very entertaining chat to Blue Dog and Horrie after training about tickers. Hamstrings were stronger this morning, but I could fell a bit of twinge on the heartstrings during the last lap.
