The heat is on

I've been warming my quads on my left leg before and after running. This morning when I went downstairs, my leg didn't hurt. Which is an improvement on last week, so the heat treatment seems to be working. So I went out for a "long" run today, hoping for 3 or 4 miles depending on how things went, and I managed 2½

Mile 1 - 12m24s
Mile 2 - 13m07s
Half mile - 6m38s

I thought it was going ok, but then about a third of a mile into my third lap, my leg started to hurt again, so I stopped at the half way point.

I hope more heat and more massaging will do the trick tonight, as my leg feels quite stiff again now...

Running 13.1 miles in memory of Carl

I ran the Silverstone Half Marathon on 15th March 2009. I managed the 13.1 mile course in 2 hours and 4 minutes. Not a bad effort for my first Half Marathon! I returned in 2010 to run it in 1 hour 54 minutes, and plan to do it again in 2011. I decided to run this in aid of The PSC Trust and PSC Support in memory of my brother Carl, who died from liver failure in November 1997. If you'd like to sponsor me for this - please email me at pscrun@ulen.me.uk PSC Trust
