![]() Karlson said he ran back to the bank and saw raised prints of tentacles on his arm, neck and upper back. I swam quickly back to the shore about 25 meters away, he added. « My glasses fogged up and then I was hit again, this time in the neck. « I was there for only a few seconds and looked at the mussels when I was hit on the arm from behind, « he told .Īlso read: Chinese woman gets a taste of karma after the live octopus she ate, tried to z u eat « The octopus attacked us, which was a real shock » Karlson said in comments emailed to Reuters.Ībout 20 minutes later, Karlson decided to go for a swim when he saw the squid swimming away from a bed of clams. However, on closer inspection, he stopped found out that it was an octopus and made a video of the animal in the shallow water with its tentacles striking a sudden blow in Karlson’s direction. Karlson was swimming with his two-year-old daughter when he spotted the tail of a stingray emerging from the water and meeting a seagull. Reuters reported in Geographe Bay on the southwest coast of Australia. The incident occurred on a beach in Western Australia when geologist and author Lance Karlson was about to take a bath near the resort where he and his family were staying An Australian man was given a painful octopus whip in the end. Currently at between 7-9hrs per week, so with a longer weekend ride and swims should be pushing this up to 12hrs per week at the start of May.Have you ever heard of a man who was hit by an octopus? As bizarre as it may seem, it actually happened. Will add more volume once my new bike arrives, and try and add swimming on top of what I’m already doing. I could be doing more for sure, but I’ve settled at a point where life seems to be balancing quite well. In summary, I’m keeping things consistent, with a slow but steady increase in TSS as the weeks go on. Finding the hikes good for general strength/muscle recruitment and for helping with endurance. Normally do an hour of Z3 work on the bike before these hikes so longs aren’t completely fresh. 20km typically once every couple of weeks, with a 30km hike a few weeks ago. Have also been supplementing the bike/run training with some long distance hikes. Could be doing more on the bike, but I have no desire to do long Z2 work in doors, so at the moment I’m ticking over and will build the bike endurance moving into the summer outdoors. If I feel the stress getting too high, I’ll drop one of the harder workouts and swap in more Z2. Psychological that’s also beneficial as my background is mainly Z2, with most experience riding at or near FTP being in 20min FTP tests, which aren’t the most pleasant sessions). So a typical biking week now looks like 1 vo2 max workout, 1 longer Z2 workout and then 1 over/under workout (really enjoying the over/unders and it’s getting me used to riding at FTP for longer periods. In terms of indoor bike sessions, I’ve deviated from the prescribed trainer road plan as there was too much intensity considering the amount of run volume I want to do. Wish I could also be riding outdoors, but a damaged bike, and a wait until the end of April for my new one isn’t helping, but it’s something to look forward to, and the thought of blasting up some climbs motivates me to push harder on the trainer sessions. ![]() Both went better than expected, although keeping the sets short and low intensity to ease back into it. Pools reopened on Monday and have managed to get two swims in so far. A little sore afterwards, but it’s less than 24hrs later and I’m feeling good and about to jump on the bike for a 2hr Z2 ride. Went out for a 24k trail run yesterday with 600m of elevation gain, which is the furthest I’ve ran since my Ironman in 2017. Thanks I missed the roll call last month (but would have reported a solid months training).Īt the end of March, things are continuing well to the point where I’m enjoying my fitness. Plenty of time until Challenge Cape Town in November. Assuming all goes well, I’ll officially get back on track for the year on 10 May. Told him, let’s split the diffs doc, I get back on the bike after 3 weeks? So I don’t mind doing massive volume up till 15 April as I’ll have 3 weeks off after to recovery properly. ![]() Surgeon told me that after a week I’ll feel ok, after 2 weeks I’ll feel 100%, but I’m not to do any vigorous activity for 4 weeks. Just crank out as much time doing AE rides on Zwift as possible. The past 2 weeks I haven’t had any issues and with Tour of Watopia offering double XP, I got on Zwift and been smashing it hard and long.įor the next two weeks that’ll be the plan. Found that running aggravated things, so I stopped running and have just focussed on the bike. My gallbladder removal surgery (it’s got some fancy name I’m fkd for knowing how to spell it) has been booked for 15 April.
