Fed up :o(

Well my run on Thursday didn't go to plan, I stopped early as my leg felt a bit uncomfortable. I hoped that stopping early would mean I'd be back running in a day or two. But on Friday it hurt to walk again. So I spent Friday on the RICE plan. Rest. Ice. Compression. Elevation. On Saturday I could walk again, so spent a couple of hours delivering CT in the Vale. My leg was a bit stiff afterwards, so a bit more rest, and some ibuprofen gel seemed to do the trick. Today walking is ok again. I think it best to rest for at least another couple of days, and then try some light training, and hope for the best!

Also today, my new swimming lessons ... failed to materialise. Although I can swim, I never learnt to breath properly, so I'm not very good at it. I want to know how to swim efficiently, and quickly and not gulp down half the pool. If I can swim well, then I'll be able to swim for fitness and this cross training will help my marathon planning. Sadly however, the gym rang to say that the pool was closed for maintenance, so my swimming has been postponed until Wednesday instead.

Fingers (or should that be legs?) crossed that I'm fully fit again in a few days, and get back into training asap.
