Back to falling to bits




Body aches today. Hips, glutes, lower back are tight.  I've had some pretty severe hip issues in the past so it's important to stay on top of these.

Plan is to bust through some rehab this morning and run later if it holds up.  If not, it's back in the pool #aquajogging!

Frustrating times - but need to be sensible. 

Sooo...

Yep, lots of hip mobility, glute rolling, back stretching and the main ingredient - coffee !

Finished up running outdoors. Kept J company for his session.  Ended up a very easy recovery run ~7 miles at just under 8s but HR very low.  Good sign fitness is improving.  Couple of short efforts at around 1 min to give the boy something to chase at the end but apart from that all very easy stuff.

Hips / glutes absolutely no issues. Foot ached pretty much every step.  Really hard to guage it.  Kinda feels like the shin did last year wheni just pretty much ignored it and ran through.  No issues just annoying feeling it on every step.

Will did the foot in a bucket o'ice water tonight.  Pretty sure it's plantar based on location and more severe first thing.  If it's a stressy then at some stage it'll go pop and party will be over anyway but basing everything on plantar fash or bruised heel at the minute.

Still planning the km reps tomorrow.  If I do anything all week that session is the main one.

Running so easy today at sub 8's was nice. It genuinely felt like 9/mm and HR was crazy low for that pace (low 130s).  Good times. Fitness improving, feel good, just need the body to play ball and who knows the dream of going quick again may actually happen !!
