Run on Sunday: pain, pain nothing but pain. From beginning to end. It was largely my fault though as I didn't eat anything before, brought nothing to drink, did not warm up/stretch. Taught me a valuable lesson about cutting corners, I suppose... ! But anyway, 2 hour run in the bag.
Monday: went to spinning. Was exhausted. Realised I need to eat more. Speaking of which, I have been gaining weight - not sure how that's possible?!
Tuesday: 5 mile run. 3 x 1,600 fast with 2 minute recoveries. It hurt but felt great at the same time. Not sure whether that makes any sense? My miles were very quick (for me). It makes me wonder why I am still so slow on the long runs. Given that my heart rate is quite low on the long runs maybe I should be pushing it a bit more.
Knee: touch and go at the moment. Ankle: not great. I really don't know if I'll be able to keep up the training (at this rate).
Ah well, enough whining! Onwards and upwards!
