Day 4
Conditioning
Trail Run.
Notes
Didn't run the whole thing. More like a run/hike/walk. Plenty of incline and relatively technical. The mountain in the distance is the one I hauled the sandbag up yesterday (not the whole thing). I'll climb to the top of it later this week, without a load, as my last conditioning session before my Spartan Sprint.

Rest
Injury
So I haven't brought this up yet, but last week I started to develop shoulder impingement from all of that shoveling I did. I thought it was getting better but I think the sandbag hike made it worse. Now, if I move my shoulder in a few specific ways, the pain is enough to drop me to my knees.
Yet I still lifted yesterday. Squatting doesn't feel great. OHP surprisingly enough is fine.
I couldn't be more frustrated that this happened right before my Spartan Sprint. As a shorter distance athlete this was going to be my highlight race of the year. Now I'll be nursing my shoulder every inch of the way.

That shit is a bummer, I hope you figure it out. Nothing is more frustrating than an injury.Green2Blue wrote:05/09/17

Re: G2B's Goal Based Training
I'm sorry to see this G2B. Just remember to have the longterm in mind. This will pass, and there will be other races. In any event, good luck!Green2Blue wrote:05/09/17

Wall slides help whenever my shoulders get crunchy. This link shows basically what I do (minus the squat):Green2Blue wrote:05/09/17

Race went well. I'll write more about it when I have time. Took one day off after the race.
