Grrr... I had a large post written and my laptop crashed. Irritating. Still, no point trying to recreate it, just have to start again*
So, this morning woke up and knew it was going to be a hot day, the beads of sweat on my body telling me so.
Shun came over and we trained, did a half mile run, then the 175m hill for 3 sprints.
Then padwork on the Thai pads. 3 X 4 minute rounds. First round was technical, second round was fast and power based, third round was random pad position and movement with counter attacks. 1 minute rest between each round. Hard, hard session and by the end me and Shun were soaked through with sweat from the heat.
Then breakfast. I had been intending to go to Kobudo, but I was so exhausted from the workout that I gave it a miss and recuperated till 11, then a cycle to the post office, then a jaunt to the Budokan.
