Hello, womens!
Dr. T, congrats on the win! Sounds fun.
Scheherazade, wow, congrats! Moving is soooo stressful and I'm glad you are making time to move your body in the midst of preparations. I hope you can manage your stress/fears/anxieties and that ends up being a good thing for you.
Way to get back into it, edbikebabe.
UK2ME, hope you are feeling better. Sounds like you are doing the right thing for you so stay strong. And how exciting planning for an ultra and an active 2020. =)
Dr_C, CHICKEN POX???????? Oh dear!!! You have to laugh so you don't cry. Please rest, rest, rest and take care of yourself so you can come back stronger.
Last week was pretty meh for me although I did manage one long and two shorter trainer rides, and two runs. My hip is still being weird but it keeps moving around from the outside of the joint, to the front, to deep inside the glute, so I am sure it is just a weak glutes/skipping my PT issue. I manged 8 running miles on Sunday without much drama although slower than I would have liked.
My industry closes down around the holidays and I am literally counting the days until Dec. 20. (Seriously, I have a paper clip chain at my desk from which I have been removing one paper clip at the end of each work day. XD). I am burnt out and frustrated with work, and these dark evening are starting to get to me -- I'm very much looking forward to the solstice. I need a break! Of course I make all these grand plans for any staycation (cleaning! organizing! gourmet cooking! hour-long dog walks multiple times per day!) and I never do them, but even just a mild reset will do me good.
I hope you all are having a great week training and otherwise!
