Golly, it’s getting hot. I’m going to need to get to the pool before 10 to avoid being _blinded_ and _burninated_.
Obviously scared those boys last week – they didn’t show.
Considering stroke correction, because I hate doing things incorrectly.

Slow runner is
slow.
Had a proper rest day yesterday to ease the knees. Still slow today. But that’s ok because I am _strong_.

ITB exercises
I have ongoing knee issues. These are partly because I’m Ms Slack Muscles in the ITB. I have some exercises the podiatrist gave me, but these are some other interesting ones:
‘Runner Dude’ lists about 4, but the ones involving steps are murder on my knees, so I’m interested in the last two.
Dr Charles rocks it with a couple of foam roller (aka Instrument Of Torture) stretches which are good because he offers a low-impact and higher-impact versions.

Dancing! Fun! Just about dead after two days of running/walking and their effects on my knees. But still – fun!
fitness: walking along the coast from Taronga Zoo to Clifton Gardens
feeling: good, effort: 4/5, distance: 7.6m
A pretty walk on a gorgeous day, especially considering it’s in the CITY. Stairs, uneven surfaces, slidey bits all made it a much slower walk, and harder than I’m used to. But it was _nice_.

Kicked my arse, but I didn’t stop to walk. Swapping in 2 swims instead of a Wednesday run is a good thing for my knee and hamstrings. Getting hot, though. I’m going to have to run earlier in the morning soon.

Ashfield pool. Lunchtime. Me. Three Chinese boys in their 20s. It’s ON!
