Bad Day at the Office

My latest training session did not go well. Yesterday I set up my chair with the video camera that I plan to use in New York City marathon. When I have used this camera in the past the battery only lasted about 90 minutes. To over come this I connected the camera up to a portable power pack. I head away from home but I did not feel I was sitting in the chair property so I did a U-turn and headed back home. I reloaded and though things were better but after heading out I was still uncomfortable but I keep going. I was pushing into quite a stiff breeze and my progress was slow. I managed to get just over 12km and then I used a driveway to help me do a U-turn and head home. The return trip was quicker with a tail wind and sections of downhill. 



During the return trip I was overtaken rather dangerously on Mitcham Road not far from the Hepburns Rd intersection. Check out the attached video of this "Crazy Driver". On the return I still felt uncomfortable with a sore belly being compressed in my racing position. Just before getting home I had a small puke of bile. Before finishing I did some extra pushing around the local streets to get my distance over 25km.

When I got home it was a relief and I was looking forward to getting out of the chair. Unfortunately I made a bad transfer and did not make it across to my day chair and I ended up on ground. I then had to get back into a sitting position and move my racing chair and get my day chair in position where I could get back in. I did this with my first attempt. I then went into the house to put my cushion back in position. As I transferred in the lounge chair I realised that I had also had bowel accident. This was turning into a shitty day!! Eventually I had a shower and got clean up and downloaded my stories to Yvonne who had returned from working in Christchurch.
