Night off tonight, or rather just cross-training instead. Back still hurts but felt much better for a little while, after going to gym. I really hate this weather; I want to get outside and run, but it really is vile. The pavements around Hove are all covered in a thick slushy layer of wet leaf gunge and I almost go flying just walking home from the station so god knows what it would be like running on it. Plus it's been raining constantly for what seems like a month now, and the wind is shaking my windows really violently as I write. And it's pitch black of course. All things that make the gym more appealing at this time of year. What happened to crisp, cold, dry winter days? That's what I want.

20 x mins crosstrainer
25 x mins treadmill (fast uphill walking incline 9.0)
10 x mins step machine
10 x mins powerplate
