right foot and ankle and shin starting to complain after 10 days without a single day off running. shin starting to tighten up again under, and ankle not feeling great. hopefully PT today will help it, in addition to taking the day off running. Did 45minutes exercise bike followed by half an hour of weights and 15minutes stretching this morning. gym again this evening... planning 60minutes exercise bike followed by 30minutes of core/stability work. right ankle feels tight and hurts when I get up from sitting. Right shin feels tight when pushing out on the right leg while stretching my left groin. running doesn't hurt but i can feel the tightness building across the bottom of the right shin. The achilles is still a little sore/enflamed but the ankle pain hits in the left handside of the ankle and across the top of the ankle as well... ice and rest today then (if cycling is causing this i'll be more than a little miffed).
i miss 20mile days. i miss 12 mile runs through the trails before breakfast.
An attempt to track the ups and downs and ins and outs of a boys attempt at, at best, becoming a semi-elite (thats at best) long distance runner
