Circuits 15:00 [1]
(rest day)
Well the motivation finally ran out. One year ago today I was getting ready for the last day of the Transalp. Today I went to a car boot sale and ate cake. If you had told me a year ago that I would not run another race for twelve months after making it to the finish line in Sulden I would not have believed you. But it is twelve months and counting and, although progress has been made, I am still injured.
Biking has kept me sane through the summer, but now I want to ease back and build the running a little. Yesterday was a reminder that caution is needed and that progress is not linear. My main goal for the next few weeks is to not care how much I do and just run to feel, i.e. Back off if I need to, which I have never been good at. Still no idea when the next race will be and not committing to anything yet. But nice to know that there is an autumn and winter ahead with a real chance to get running fit again.
