Street-O @ Gresswell Hill

Only run 200m? Bah - can't make that work at Street-O. I entered my usual B Course, and did a "walk one - run one" between controls, coming in after 42 minutes. Ran about 2.5 km.

Nice flat area, pleasant running conditions.

My hip had been aching all day for no reason - probably trying to put me off my plan for tonight. I ignored it, and now it's sore. But it's no sorer than it was during the day, and I've taken drugs, so we'll see how it wakes up in the morning. I'll do some tennis ball torture later tonight - I have to stay up 'til midnight for a conference call anyway... plenty of time!

DistanceAvg pace
2.8 km~9:30 /km
2.5 km~6:00 /km



postscript: I didn't actually find any sore spots with the tennis ball - the ache seemed to be deep within the hip, out of reach. It's 95% okay this morning (Thurs), and I've thrown some more Voltarin at it for good measure.

Probably needed a little more rest after Monday's torture? "Rest" is the secret component in all great runners' training programs!

Your comment on my blog made me laugh. Yes I DO wish those pants came with the bum!

I always find that when I feel 95% okay I wander whether I'm imagining that 5% not okay!
