It having now been 17 months since the first post on this blog and I've been having a wee browse through its stats. Some interesting, some surreal, some I don't know what to make of them.
As I write this, the blog has been accessed 10,012 times since September 2010. Here is a breakdown of pageviews by country, described by Blogger as my "Audience." I'm unsure why the figures don't tally up. Anyway, quite what anyone in Russia makes of reports on Motherwell v Queen's Park etc is anyone's guess.

The "Traffic Sources" are interesting. The most frequent ones are the blogs by Chris Upson, Ian Goudie and Gary Bruce (I think that's his surname) from the Highlands, Facebook and good old Google. I wasn't sure whether to be interested or disturbed by some of the Google search terms. Top of the table is "runaway lawyer" (searched for 36 times) and other honourable mentions go to "stuart gibson lawyer" (7 times) and "stuart gibson runaway" (6 times). Finally, the most popular post has been the Annan Athletic v Queen's Park match report in September 2010 (accessed 204 times) followed by last year's Armagh 5k (accessed 107 times) then the Hugh Wilson 10k in November 2010 (accessed 90 times). However you find this and whatever you read, thank you for reading. Injury wise, I'm now approaching something gradually closer to normal training. Here is week two of injury recuperation. Monday 30th January: 30 mins aqua jog including 15 x 1.5 mins, 30 second jog recoveries- replicating a track session. Tuesday 31st: 40 mins aqua jog including efforts of 1 min, 3 mins, 5 mins, 5 mins, 3 mins, 1 min with 2 mins jog recoveries. Wednesday 1st February: Rest- follow up physio appointment. Big improvement. Run-aqua jog on alternate days prescribed. Kirsty and Gavin, thanks for giving me my dinner beforehand. Thursday 2nd: 3.6 miles easy (23:55)- first run on dry land for 9 days. Still feeling twinges. Friday 3rd: Swim, 6 x 200m crawl (all 4:10-4:20), 2 mins recoveries plus 20 mins aqua jog including a 10 mins effort- deep end of the pool closed off, did a swim session then a jog when it opened up. Got a "well done mate" from a lifeguard as I left pretty knackered. Saturday 4th: AM- 3 miles easy (21:02), PM- 1.5 miles easy (10:23)- intended to aqua jog after AM run but pool closed for a gala. Spent afternoon working on files and went out again before dinner for fresh air. No twinges at all either time. Sunday 5th: Swim, 4 x 100m crawl (all 2:30-2:35), 50m easy crawl recoveries plus 20 mins aqua jog including a 10 mins effort- as on Friday, deep end closed off then got a jog when it opened. Tried to replicate a tempo run by swimming continuously for 600m with 4 periods of effort with easy swimming to recover in between. Starting to feel right shoulder twinging from so much swimming. Each swim and aqua jog included a 100m breast stroke warm up and 100m breast stroke warm down. "Mileage:" running- 8 miles, swimming- 2900m, aqua jogging- 1 hour 56 minutes. Nearly over it hopefully. | |||
