It would seem the drugs do work....
At least, i hope they do... Lets see how 7km of mud and hills affects things now ive had the last of my 'fix'. |
how long have you been back training?

Ive been diligent...
Cycling and swimming through summer/ september, plus S&C / gym work. Started 4 weeks ago with 2 x2.5k treadmill runs. Then 2 x2.5k treadmills and a 7k run. week 3 was a 6k, an 8k and 11k (i was feeling punchy on my meds) and this week ive run an 8k with hilly efforts and a 7k easy. Its hard to not go full beans at cross-country. Last year at this race i came 20th overall and 3rd for my club. This year i'm unlikely to come in the points (top 6 for the club) so i should probably just sit back and get round. Assuming i dont react negatively i can look to start 'competing' again at the next fixture in 5 weeks time. Thanks for the reminder, i think i needed it

Its been ok thanks.... managed to run to a half decent level over cross country season but have just had another month off after rolling my ankle which has left me with a tender achilles atm. Ive been cycling/swimming/gyming a bit.
The thing is .. despite 3-4 weeks off running, i'm feeling the same lower back pain again. Nothing i cant manage but i've come to the conclusion,after 9 months of stop/start, that my (possibly 15y old) mattress may be to blame. So i've got £2000 worth of Tempur mattress arriving in 10 days time.
Lets see if that changes anything......
