Off the IC couch. Hooray!!

Back in Malham, Yorkshire, for a week’s conference. Such a beautiful part of the world.

After 3 weeks on the IC due to sacroiliac problem leading to severe muscle pains, I thought I’d try a gentle run, ready to stop if anything went wrong. I had some spare time before the conference start.

So C25K week one it was. A very sedate 140 bpm cadence. And all went fine. Not a twinge but I have lost a little stamina.

My plan is to do run 3 of each week C25K on alternate days to get fully back in the saddle in 3 weeks.

Really, happy to have done it and to be here. 😁

Nice comeback running... that stamina will just be hiding! Nice to see you back out there.

It’s always scary coming back from the IC for those first few runs isn’t it? But it sounds as if it all bodes well for you. Welcome back 🙂

That’s great HeavyFoot, and an excellent way of getting back into it.

Yeah!! Welcome back I’ve decided to space out the runs a bit more for now so you’ll catch me up in week 2. Pleased to have you back and isn’t C25k even better this time?

Thank you. It’s such a beautiful place. If the rain stays off tomorrow afternoon, the group might get to walk around the tarn.

If you go to the cove watch out for the peregrines! There was a great TV documentary about them a while back...😄
