The reluctant runner!

[Snadger]

Pain, pain, pain and more pain! My left knee was paining before I started and its just a sea of pain now I've finished!

Managed my quickest time yet though methinks, 68 minutes for 10K. It was during one of my interval sprints that my knee really started knacking so hopefully it will loosen up a bit before next wednesday?
Its getting too close to my Hamsterley forest 10k to back off on the training but I may have to for the week before, then run it cold!

Don't try to run through knee pain!! Suggest you rest for a week or so - and if you can swim instead to keep the cardio work rate up, so much the better.

I swim like a brick Hazel!

Might pump the tyres up on my mountain bike and give that a go mid week.

In the mean time, had a bath and my knee is smothered with Voltarol Emulgel (God that stuff stinks!)

Really dammed annoying this auld age thing!

I'm taking Hazel's advice and resting for a week or so. Don't want to overdo it

Can see now what VC sees in this armchair running! Crocked for this evenings run with a gammy knee. Been to the doc about a gammy finger and got Pennicillin type stuff. Side effects are nausea and diarrhea so that's summat to look forward to!

Sounds like the only running I will be doing is to the toilet!

Hopefully I'll heal a bit allowing me to have a proper run on Sunday!

[Snadger]

Still crocked! I'm gutted as I've signed on for a race at the end of March which I won't be able to do. Been to the walk in centre today as I am still walking with a limp and my knee is only marginally better.

After examination the Doc didn't think I would need an operation and that time would heal eventually. Possibly crocked for two months! Sick of the sight of Ibruproven.

I shall return though ion the spring, rejuvenated i hope!

Sorry to hear this, Snadger, its not the same training alone
Maybe I'll put my feet up too, until you're recovered. Hope its soon.

Would you like a doughnut?

Veggie, you are like Jobe's comforter, but you make me laugh out loud!

Veggichicken, sounds to me you just need an excuse.

Laughter's the best medicine, Snadge


Doughnut's are pretty good too

Seriously, (I can do it if I try really hard) I hope you're back on your feet soonest
