I woke up pretty sore and achy from running hard for at parkrun yesterday. Hard for where I am at at least. I was planning to do some sort of long slow recovery run but getting out of a warm bed and feeling the winter coldness on my achy legs had me thinking of another option. Most of our friends and club runners would be out of town for Queensland's biggest running event of the year, the Gold Coast marathon and other distances, so we did not need to be any where at any particular time to meet up with a running group. I would have rather been doing the marathon but I have had a few training set backs.
I came to the conclusion that a brick workout might be easier on my achy legs. Hopefully some indoor cycling would warm me up and get the blood moving before a short easy run locally.
It only took a couple of minutes to set it up on the garmin watch and I was away.
A bricks workout is a workout that has two disciplines.
Thought all my the stats were slow, it felt good to get some movement done.
The 30 minutes on the bike.
Then 3 kilometres running on the single tracks in the nature reserve, you can see the spot there I stopped and talked to the koala research people who were out looking for the koala we spotted last week.
I really want to get all that run cadence into the green zone especially when I am taking it easy. I like the way garmin catches the whole workout but unfortunately strava records it as 3 separate events and strava2hive did not seem to pick it up like normal.
