Running 23rd January 2009
I have now learnt emphatically that aches, pains and niggles after starting to run again are merely a test of mental readiness. It must be something every sports person has to overcome time and again and with that conclusion set firmly in my brain I can now continue regardless.
First time ever, my ankle, right inner 'shin' started niggling after my run on the 21st. So much for feeling light and able to clock a better time. As ML says, we simply go too fast too hard too soon. One has to feel as though Mr Plod is just behind you knowing you may not run away from him...
Kept running (with the niggle on every step) as I am sure this will be resolved with ice, massage and slowing down a little.
Time - 43:23:46
Lap 1 - 22:47:82
Lap 2 - 20:35:64
At least I am getting out there. I hope to stick to the schedule 100% in terms of sessions per week as from this week coming.
Happy.

The niggles are there to remind you of your limits. Your mind is there to impose them. Your heart is there to break through them.
