Progress Continues

Over the past few weeks I've been slowly getting back to more competitive running. I've completed a number of runs over 10 miles in length without any setbacks in terms of tweaked muscles. At first I was really slow and was really concentrating on every stride just to make sure I didn't put my feet anywhere that might cause me to slip a pull another muscle. That's not a very exciting way to run and it was basically just a way to get my fitness back up to decent levels. I felt that I'd really lost my fitness big time and struggled to even complete 10ks without stopping but over the past couple of weeks I've started just running for the pleasure of it and trusting that my legs are okay. So far so good.

I've done two 10 mile runs in the past 3 days with no adverse results except feeling a bit tired after the second one.

I'm off to Turkey tomorrow for a couple of weeks so I'll get in some running in good weather - can't wait. Check out our website to see exactly where I'm going www.relaxinturkey.net.
