Note

Got in my running gear but lacing shoes up proved sorer than expected. I got out the door before deciding to say no. Whilst my toes still need some light bandaging I can't really fit them comfortably into running shoes. I'm very aware of running in shoes that are too lose and issues this may cause - even walking around all day in loosened off trainers is causing my feet to ache and I'm worried about aggravating plantar etc. by running in loosened shoes.

Thankfully the skin the manky smaller toe is almost all back, so I could be able to go bandage free in the next couple of days. Whilst the big toe was starting to feel pretty good, I drained a bit of trapped blood last night and that has resulted in fun toe-nail times, so may have to wait a bit longer there.

The main positive is that I reckon this 2-3 week break will pay dividends next year. Since starting to take running fairly seriously 4 years ago I've not really had a proper long rest so should return feeling refreshed - although the first batch of sessions will suck! Also managing to get some work done!

I'm hoping to get a few jogs in next week before jogging around the XC on Sunday (must get a vest). Brum XC league starts today and I'm a bit disappointed I'm not in Leamington with the Stoke boys. Looking forward to getting to know the Hallamshire lot more over winter.
