Struggles of a Recovery Swim & Run

Still totally KO and tired, despite the enforced rest yesterday. Maybe it was accumulation of pre-race hard trainings and race-highs. Or simply, age. Very lethargic and listless.

Swam 20 laps - 26min+

Skipped MF run and did my own Canterbury recovery with Sok Hwa & Alber. After 2km, I lost them.... ahead of me. Didn't feel top of the weather, so was really trudging along. Bloated, tired, both physically and mentally no stamina. The prospect of running for more than 20min was daunting! Thankfully didn't force myself through the interval runs. Would have ended up half-baked, or worse, injured! Jogged a bit, strolled a bit, jogged a bit more, strolled a bit more. The evening weather was cool, and there was still light even after the tennis court. After a while, didn't bother timing the run anymore.

*yawn*
