Wednesday 4th April 2007

As I write this at Wednesday lunchtime, there's been NO RUNNING since Sunday. Boo! Plenty of cycling (to work and on the X-Trainer) but I'm giving the calves a good chance to rest after they've been inflamed since last week. Went to see the physio Alison recommended yesterday,Ben Levine, and he put my calves and hamstrings through their paces. At one point, my legs were feeling like car jacks being lifted and stretched and thoughts of Mrs Macca kept flashing through my mind - surely it would be less painful just to have a prosthetic leg! I think he's done the trick though as they feel a lot more 'normal' today and although I'll lay off the running this evening (Sian's going out) I'm looking forward to the club tomorrow and then one last long run before the marathon, this weekend. Funny how I'm getting withdrawl symptoms, but I'm convinced it's best not to aggravate these niggles!
