Putting down roots

A solid week, which was follows:
Mon: 35km on the bike in the AM. Got drenched for my trouble.
Tue: Weights in the AM. Run in the evening, guessing 5-6km
Wed: Weights in the AM. Was hoping to get out for some drills in the evening, didn't have time.
Thu: Weights in the AM. Was hoping to get out for a run, but bought a house instead. As you do.
Fri: 35km on the bike in the AM. Solid ride, felt pretty decent.
Sat: 42km on the bike in the AM with my riding group. Weights in the evening.
Sun: Run in the morning, guessing around 12km or so. Got a big ugly late in the run.

Hip was pretty ordinary late in the Sunday run - I think it was a combination of doing legs weights late on Saturday and 12km being about as far as I can manage before things tighten up. I also wore the Skins shorts which seem to give a bit of trouble.

It was damned hot here over the weekend and the Sunday morning run was fairly uncomfortable. Pace is also very ordinary - a couple of runners I'd normally cruise past are just easing away from me. No point worrying about it at the moment, just gotta get out there and enjoy it.

As mentioned we bought a place down in Brisbane's Centenary suburbs. We're really happy with the place, it was pretty much what we were looking for, and although it needs work the exterior is in great condition.

Good to see you have settled into Brissy Vat - will keep an eye out for you while I'm running the Brissy Half this Sunday.
