Elbows to the rescue!

My lower back still felt stiff when I got up this morning having tried every sleeping position to get comfortable during the night.  I decided to do my 1 hour early morning turbo but technical glitches with my Garmin meant it was done on "feel" rather than actual data.  It's difficult to tell how I performed without that feedback but if sweat was anything to go by I worked hard as it was still pouring off me despite it being -3 outside my non-insulated, non-heated training room.  I still prefer to have the data so I can see how I am performing against targets.
This afternoon I went to Grant for a sports massage to ease my lower back pain.  He's identified my glutes were the problem so set about them with his elbows - ouch, ouch, ouch!  Feeling better and will be at swimming training tonight and am sure I will sleep well tonight!
Before sun rise tomorrow I am doing the long run I should have done last night then I won't be training till Saturday so it will give my muscles a rest.
