Hello hello!
Who knew that Day 9 of my training for my American Ninja Warrior would be, not my best...
I'm now completely reconsidering doing leg bodyweight exercises on the alternate days from my run and sprints. I didn't think it was a good idea to do box jumps after running and sprinting in the same day... but, I was so sore and super fatigued in my run today. I was slow and I honestly didn't think it was the best idea to do the sprints at all. I'm super sore in the quads and calves.

Terrible time... I ran in the rain which I was proud of. I totally got ready, walked outside, saw the rain, said "NOPE!", went back inside and did some soul searching... then chucked on all my gear and did the work.
I don't know why I was so turned off, in my jacket, hat and gloves, I didn't actually feel any rain... and my shoes aren't slippery so it was a total non-event.
The fatigue in my legs slowed me down though... I just felt pretty weak.
I didn't do any speedwork today, I'm going to have to make up for it tomorrow...
So excited to see these quick little flutter kicks... it was hard, especially the last 40, but done and dusted in under a minute.

It says 'complete throughout the day' but of course I didn't look at it until just before... so smashed it out in one shot.
Waited until midday to eat, which was good. I had lunch and dinner today, and hopefully will be in better shape for tomorrow.

Can I say that the stretching and flexibility 30 minutes before bed has been just amazing! I think it's hugely helping, and it really calms me down for sleepytime. I'd seriously recommend it to all of the peoples.
