    mate your TM times seem fine, I wouldnt take stock in my old times...I was lucky in that there was a bunch of mates and we all played for the same teams in touch, rugby, hockey, indoor soccer, indorr cricket, we socialised together, flatted, basically the only thing we didnt do together was women....<br />

    Had Bodyfat measured yesterday and to my horror Ive lost 5kg of muscle since my last assessment. Need to up the protein, monitor the intensity if my running and make every rep count in the weight room.

    I'll go do a 3 km on grass down the local oval in my fivefingers some time this week, and let you know how I do.[/quote]<br />
    <br />
    Finally got around to it! <br />
    <br />
    Clocked the three in 14:46. With more training at that pace, I reckon I could crack 14. But as exercise, it isn't as effective as longer runs for me mentally or physically, and it's hard to change between the two regularly.<br />
    <br />
    Grass was fairly firm with a couple of soft corners, but mown flat like the bloody Council insists on (silly buggers wonder why it dies off in winter). It was a good change from concrete, but running in an oval gets fkn boring...

    Oi you stubborn old fart, I still reckon you should change up and do some higher rep stuff. Still as heavy as you can go, but up it to 10-12 reps.<br />
    <br />
    that is all!!
