I am soooooo tired! This week seems to have taken ages too! So much has happened yet nothing at all if that makes sense.
Yesterday I did nothing! Really nothing! In fact I did so little I can't remember what I did do!
Today I am out running at lunch for 50mins.
Tomorrow I am off to the Cavern for a mini social with Gnome so I am trying to do some baking tonight! I just hope it goes to plan as I have said I am making and I don't want to have to buy cakes! If they work well I may do some baking for the TrailWalker to raise money rather than asking for sponsorship as I hate doing that!
Anyway I will report back on today's steady run later which will be about 3.5-4m as I don't want to flog it and mess up my energy levels for Sunday's long run of about 10m!
Report:
Well what can I say. Right yesterday afternoon I noticed my top outside edge of my right quad was tender. Was still there this morning but I put that down to beinghalf asleep. Was very busy this morning so didn't pay much attention to it but when I popped out to get a drink I noticed it. Having refered to coach Spans we decided I would run as hopefully it was just stiffness and the exercise would loosen it.
First thing I noticed is it was DAMN COLD! out there and I only had a tee on! Goose Bumps all over me! Oh and a head wind! Why is it that whichever way you run it seems to follow you?!
Didn't really notice muscle so happily trotted on "taking it easy" then I had to stop to cross a roundabout. Suddenly traffic came from nowhere and it took at least a minute to cross! As I started up again I notice the muscle as if the cold air and stoping had tightened it. After a few mins it eased again but as my legs started to tire I noticed it more. Result was sensible head kicked in and I stopped at 2.6m which took 30:22 mins but meant I had 1m to get back to the office taking the short route! I ended up jogging bits of this walk back as I was getting cold!
I have noticed this muscle before but that wa after a run on a nasty camber. Hopefully this means it will go shortly ideally before Sunday's planned 10m!
This run worked out at an average of 11:41mm pace which means I need to really pay attention to running STEADY on Sunday!
