Well this is embarassing...
...again !!! Not sure what week and what plan I am on as the condition of my body continually changes!
Foot today not right enough to do intervals, in fact hips & glutes in general were very tired.
Ended up running steady-ish. Mainly progressive but at the start it felt very leggy. Stopped a few times to stretch and open out hip flexors which helped.
7.7 miles @ 7:02/mm progressive. Pretty grey run really but happy enough as the main thing at the minute is to be able to continue.
It looks like intervals (the quicker ones) will be knocked on the head until things are better as I think faster running is aggrivating everything. that said I'm pretty confident the km reps should be OK on Saturday. Quite enjoyed that session, def noticing the benefit of the hill this week as I am much stronger.
Run today in the Infinity Reacts a.k.a Turners work boots. Not even sure a tempo would be possible in them but they get the job done.
Focus after run on rolling glutes & stretching hip flexors out. it's helping, most likely root of problem there just manifesting in foot pain.
Tomorrow planning a longer easy tourist run. Nice slow pace, just bag some very easy miles and time on feet. Still hoping to get a session in (same one) Saturday.
I'll play it by ear, just getting miles in bank but still hoping to knock out shorter sessions. If I can't we'll need to rethink but most likely I'll get consistent base miles in bringing the pace slowly down where it needs to be.
