Third year at the Blue Goat Backyard mountain marathons.
Last year and I did this race (hungover) in 40 degrees heat.
Today it was 8 degrees and the rain turned the course into a mud-bath.
I turned up late, missed the start, and didn’t finish.
Needless to say, I’ll be back next year. To me, this race is what trail running is all about.

30/30 40/20 50/10 seconds work / rest ratio:
Lunges
Push-ups
Sliders
Sumo double-scissors
Badger squats
Frog thrusts
1 minute rest between rounds.
10 minute warm-up. 5 minute cool-down.

Good job Derek pulled through, otherwise I’d have no lockdown training partners left.
Today we did this EMOM-type workout with dumbbells for 25 minutes:
Min 1-5 - 20 squats
Min 6-10 12 push-ups
Min 11-15 20 deadlifts
Min 16-20 14 push-press
Min 21-25 20 snatches
Wasn’t very pretty but we tried hard.

Dumbbell cleans / toes-to-bar
Rest
On repeat in a team of 3 for 20 minutes.
Good, honest movement but hideous at the time 🤮

Annual review of the football season - 2020 edition.
Lots of lows, a road to redemption, a Covid scare and a cliffhanger finish.
I asked 's mum if she got to the part about the orgiastic den of iniquity.
She said the only such thing was the "o**y of self-adoration," which seems harsh. But probably true.
Tough crowd.
