Wazza's Wednesday Workout too

Workout with Wazza, Sean, Mary and Lou.  Ran from Wentworth Park to Pyrmont and then to Anzac Bridge for 3 reps of the ramp. Then back to Wentworth Park.

On the way we stopped and did various exercises using landmarks. In no particular order:

  • Arm walk (parallel bars)
  • Chin down (not able to do a chin up so held myself up and lowered myself gently) x 5
  • Monkey bars (getting closer)
  • Tricep dips
  • Comando crawls
  • Stairs (lots and lots of stairs)
  • Cargo net (over 2 times and combined with stairs)
  • Box jumps (I did modified version as still not strong enough for these... getting closer though)
  • Crunches
  • Full sit ups
  • Lunges
  • Running along railway sleepers on foreshore (balance)
  • More stairs
  • Push ups
  • More crunches
  • Planks
  • Side planks
  • More stairs
  • squats
  • star jumps (jumping jacks)
  • fast walk with a wheel over your head
  • climbing over a small wall
Tonight I felt I was able to find another gear... I was able to pull out that little bit extra which I did not have a week ago even.  Tonight I got the runners high I was sorely missing on Saturday.

Mileage with Milov

Met the TM team and Milov at Coogee surf club for 5 x a nasty little hill circuit devised by Milov.

First lap we ran together slowly i.e. a little faster than my pace and finished in 16:30.

The subsequent laps we ran at our own pace:
17:00
18:20
18:35
18:47

My legs felt pretty tired but not as bad as I feared. My stomach however was pretty crampy.

A tough circuit and a good session. Now I'm HUNGRY!
