One day on, one day off...
Wednesday 28/06/06:
Out at 5.45am and it was cold but not as bad as expected. Kept the pace fairly easy, but for some reason I felt like I was out for a lot longer than I was. I usually lose all track of time when running, but this morning I was almost aware of each passing minute. Weird...
Brisk walk warmup: 5mins
Easyish paced run: 31mins (6km)
Brisk walk cooldown: 5mins
Hamstring was pretty good, just a little tight near the end and I could feel the tightness round my inner ankle/lower shin again, but just a tad. When I saw the physio this afternoon she really worked on the lump in my ankle and it hurt like hell and is still quite sore.
Also, I witnessed a crime this morning on my way back home... Some cheeky *@#!* stealing bags of cement from a pallet on a residential building site, under the cover of darkness. He was running between the pallet and the boot of his car and when he saw/heard me coming along he jumped in his car and zoomed off!
Thursday 29/06/06:
Took today as a rest day due to the soreness (and a bit of a late night due to a dinner out) and will run tomorrow instead, which is usually a rest day. Had a hectic day at work today and tomorrow will be even crazier, due to it being last day of the month. Will be working late too, running statements, not exactly my idea of fun on a Friday nigth, but oh well...

Vicky, look after that hammy, they can be very fickle and without the best care they will sh^t you for ages!
Keep the legs covered (wear tights or 3/4s) and do all of the stuff that the physio suggests.
All the best!
