Greetings from Bendigo

(Ry). Ok, back online after a brief break this week. Have been taking it easy due to a few minor injuries. Am so paranoid about every small ache and pain....is the sore knee, hamstring, foot, hip the beginning of something much more serious? Or is it just a 'normal' ache and pain that you get with long distance running?

Just when I thought my training was coming along great I had to take four days off this week. Four days! It's like an eternity when you are counting every day of important training. I think I am doing my head in over this....afterall, nothing hurts *that* much. I did go for an easy 60 min run today. Slow, though, much slower than usual.

I have my first half marathon coming up soon, 18th July in Melbourne. Whatever is going on with my knee, hip, hamstring better be sorted out by then!!

  1. [co] you are not soft! decided that at a certain age and level of training all you are is 'sore'... even when i stretch, i go run/swim/bike and its all 'pain' again... had first massage today post IM... yep that hurt!! but having a day of rest so feeling a bit better... till tomorrow!!

    Listen to your body and make sure you get enough rest... its the 4th discipline!
