2.5 hours on my bike around the peripheral ring of Milan, taking notes on 22 public open urban spaces =P It was nice …

Monday, Oct. 3rd, 2011

morning:

  • 10min warm up
  • 11 x 100m tempo runs on grass

evening:

  • 20min biking to Sicilian home
  • 40min run at the park with older Sicilian
  • 17min biking back

bloody blister … (literally)

Tuesday, Oct. 4th, 2011

  • 17min biking to the track

  • 15min warm up

  • stretch, drill, stride, put on spikes

  • 5 x 200m w/2min rests except 4min rest before the 5th one. @29,30,30,30,31. Hamstrings had a heart attack after the 4th one.
    Good session, considering I didn’t feel ‘bouncy’ at all today, and the bloody blister was right over a spike… ouch.

  • 10min cool down and quality talking, then good stretch

  • 20min gym session (mostly arms and abs)

  • 17min back home.

note: words can’t really explain (shortly enough) how grateful I am for my Sicilian training group. Accumulating with lactic acid is actually a joy, when done collectively =P Only to mention one benefit.

note 2: I just noticed that the last 3.5 weeks I have been working for every single day on my thesis, for a minimum of 6 and maximum of 11 hours per day.
I … need … a … break …
(meeting with my professor tomorrow).
