Core Performance
It's not often that I am getting excited about a book, but this one seems logical and tackles a lot of the problems I am currently experiencing, that is lack of core strength and elasticity.
Did (most) parts of a Power Day and it is significantly more streneous than anticipated. I won't be following the full program, but will certainly supplement existing training with it (once all the toys such as a foam rool will have arrived...)

Wisdom Tooth
Got a wisdom tooth extracted this morning. One of those things you could do without, but at least it explains where the pains and headaches came from in the last few days.

Running:
22km - 2:08
First 2 hour plus run in a long time. Very slow and a bad headache afterwards. Also tooth problems and on pain killers.

Torrential rain outside and still not 100% fit, so I went for the lazy indoor option.
