Run: Medium 1:15:15 10.0 mi (7:32 / mi)
ahr:147 max:182 rhr:40 weight:71.3kg shoes: Asics GT-2170
10 miles HFW via Embankment, Tower, Elephant, Westminster Bridge, Embankment and Tower again.
An interesting run. I was only going to do a 5 mile recovery as my calves were still pretty stiff from Sunday. But after stretches at 1k and 2k, calves felt fine, so after 5 miles thought what the heck, might as well go around again for the full scheduled 10 miles. Completed successfully, but obviously not quickly.
Took an ice bath again after stretching post run. It doesn't feel like this does much at the time, but I think this might be of some benefit, and I have less chance of giving myself frostbite this way rather than icing. Hypothermia might be on the cards though! I've also started using a massager on my calves for about 20 mins in the morning, and that certainly increases mobility. I usually stagger out of bed feeling very old and creaky
