Monday. On the way home from work I stopped in at the Meadow Valley waterhole. A good solid 49 min kayak session in gusty winds.
Tuesday. Out on some rough old gravel farm roads south of my place. 100 mins/34 kms of mountain biking. Quite hilly, windgusts of 35 kph, temps 26 to 30 deg C. Headwind the last 10 kms.
Wednesday. Stopped for a run in the forest on the way home. Had to wait out 30 mins of intense thunderstorms. A wet 11 kms of hilly trails in 67 mins.
Thursday. Late the previous night I felt flushed and had some tummy cramping. No sleep, plenty of toilet visits, sweating, light headed.
Crook all morning even had some hand tremor. Garmin telling me resting pulse high 80s. A trip to the fridge and back had it up near 100.
I went to bed at 2 pm and slept for 2 hours.
Woke up dripping wet from sweat. Had a shower. Tummy felt good so I had some food. Resting pulse now 62.
6 pm. Bored and restless so mowed the lawn. Sat down foe a bit resting pulse 58.
Friday. An afternoon kayak session of 20 laps of Hedleys Dam 49 mins then a 105 min/37 km mountain bike ride initially in the foreststhen finishing on the railtrail.
Saturday. Visitors and visiting all day. I squeezed in 10.8 kms/ 63 mins of easy forest running on a full tummy between social obligations.
Sunday. 60 mins of easy mountain biking and 30 mins/5kms of easy trail running straight off the bike.
A bit light on running wise even by my low standatds but otherwise a "got it done week".
The tummy bug? Not sure what that was.
No covid cases for 17 days here in Vic. So slowly returning to normal.
Today Australia had it's first community acquired cases for a couple of weeks. 3 cases in S.Australia who had had none prior for 3 months. One of the cases being an employee at the returned travellers quarantine and I would assume the other 2 are close contacts. Hopefully that will be controlled quickly.
Rtype. Have you read any of the articles about 75 yo Lynn Rathjen who recently broke 6 for the mile?
His training seems to have parallels to yours.
