Today's Journal
Sunday morning rode to slaughter falls, 30min/12km ride with a number of hills. The trail run this morning entailed a similar route to the last trail run.


Session Evaluation: This was an enjoyable but challenging trail run, particularly after the sessions that I did yesterday. The legs were feeling rather fatigued before the trail session, and particularly that I had cycled to the start venue of the Trail run. Throughout the session I worked within my limits; however, that was until we reached that hill. (Just working it out from the Garmin, the hill has a 28% gradient for about 500m) Initially we did well to run up the first part; however, after about 200m it became a lost cause and walking/striding was the only option...even that was tough, the quads got a good workout.
