10.54k, 54:59

Chins, Dips, OL Calf Raises

Notes

Solid. HR only briefly touched 170, so this was very controlled. Think this is the best this workout has felt, and as far as I can tell equal fastest, so that's awesome.

* skipping all 405+ this week to freshen up my back. doing the 455 last week together with hours of biking gave my lower back a beating. there is no pain after the squat workout but i can feel my back  aching after a heavy single. it felt so uncomfortable to the point that i had to take time before bending my back out of the bar after racking the set otherwise the aching will make me move in funny ways.  :P
* will stay with 315 in the mornings and only do 405 in the afternoon next week for faster recovery.

- run 2:24:38, 25.39 km
a little sore from the squats but not bad. ran with a buddy who was not as up for 16 miles as he thought, he just hit a wall with 4-5 miles to go. pace fell off quite a bit as a result. first run outside since the storm two weeks ago.

95 km/just under 8 hours for the week is good. plan calls for a down week this coming week, but i don't really feel like i need it. on the other hand, coming out of that will be the three peak weeks in terms of mileage, so maybe best just to stick to the plan and see where it takes me. maybe i'll do a race on saturday if i'm feeling good.

Run -- 12.34k, 1:13:46, Avg HR 126

Notes

Nice! 64k week, less time on feet than planned but easy pace was crisper than expected so slightly exceeded target load. Feeling good in my body. I.e. feel like I'm back in the flow where this is a normal/light week rather than a sudden jump in volume. Aim is to keep that feeling as long as possible, I think.

* midback feeling very tense everytime i use 405+. too much saddle time on the weekends biking with my son. i'm also maintaining a lean BW probably because i'm not adjusting my calories and adding 2-3hr+ of mountain biking on weekends.
