“Do not let what you cannot do
interfere with what you can do”
Former UCLA coach, John Wooden
After 3 slack weeks it was time to get back into it. The circumstances were made more difficult by the fact I was away in Sydney. It meant I didn’t have as much equipment to cross train with so it was back into the running. After feeling pretty sore I had managed almost 50km by wednesday but my leg was starting to get sore again. Back home by friday I haven’t gotten back into the routine. I think I have hopefully diagnosed my hamstring problem as referred pain from my patellofemoral joint, so I am hopeful this will lead to a resolution soon.
Meanwhile my Garmin GPS unit has died. The battery is not working unless it is on the charger. Still these obstacles are only meant to make us stronger. It is certainly a useful and awesome training tool so I have to get that sorted.
My goals have taken some adjusting and the next aim is to get some solid training in for the rest of December and build my base back to what it was before taking things to a new level come the start of 2008. Let’s do it…
