Back on track!

Stupid knee or shin (not sure which) was a real worry that I was out of the race. A week resting and ran 5k Monday and again this morning, nice and steady! My legs feel good, no pain or stiffness. Planning to do 5k again on Friday even though I want to do more!

Next week I will continue with my 2 X 5k (1 slow, 1 tempo) plus a longer run and see how we go! I have a 10k event in June and if I can keep healthy, looking forward to it! Any tips for keeping the legs fit? Julie

Of course, but it was attempting tempo running that causes my pain!
