Pushing it

Back in work this week, and back to the “normal” regime. I have been trying not to push things too far, but I may have this week. Couple of 6ish miles during the week, then we went for a little hike with Kate on Saturday, just about 5 miles or so, so I wanted to push a little on the Sunday and trying the 3 x 6 approach again. So I run a 6 mile circuit, come home for 5 mins, have some liquid, and some food, stretch and repeat. So ended up doing just over 19 miles, but the last few miles were rather painful.

I just cannot help myself, I thought things were all magnificent, but went from 13 to 19 in a week, which is just a little too much. The good news is that it appears that most of the pain is actually in the leg muscles, rather than specifically the intense knee pain I got last time, so we’ll see how it continues.

Have an appointment with the Physio on Friday, hopefully the last one, and have just booked a hotel, so that we can walk the Worcester to Birmingham canal on the 14th May- all 30 miles of it. Should be fun!

Miles: 37
