It's a great shift system if you don't have children and a wife, I started my working life on that system. Spent 5 years working like that.

That really sucks Lexx... I don't know how you cope with those working hours. I am sure you will make it work somehow. Your poor family.

 

I had a terrible non-existent training week. Nausea is back in full swing and it is worse than ever.

My training motivation is the lowest it has ever been. I will try a short run tomorrow and see how I feel. I will be dusting off my bike for a Sunday short ride.

 

Have a good weekend everyone.

Sounding bleak there.. How about you try something different for the weekend? Go for a hike. Swim? Garden, plant a tree ;)

I'm still on my no-running-over-weekends streak (maybe). I took a tumble on my run on Thursday and injured my left hip and also scraped off a fair amount of skin on my left knee. Because of the hip pain I haven't been sleeping all too lekker the past two nights, so I'm not really up for a run at the moment.

Training hard all disciplines, only 6 weeks to IMWC70.3... no time for slump in motivation or make excuses not to train!

 

Any exercise is better than no exercise, so if you are having a slump in running, cross train and do something different !

That sucks. I worked at the power station just across the border in Mozambique a few years ago

 

We stayed in Komatie and crossed the border every morning and evening

It filled up my passport quickly.

Good luck Lex, it will take time but you will adapt. I travel to Kenya every few weeks, and loose a whole weeks training every time. Its actually beneficial to my running. I get more rest and concentrate on more quality runs.

Correct. 12 x 9 MW Gas engines

 

I had a great time , actually gained weight due to eating out every night
