45 min treadmill

Hiya,

Haven't run for a few days due to a painful piriformis / sciatic nerve. But felt I could run this morning. I was afraid though it might already be too hot outside at 10 am, so the treadmill it was.

As it was morning, there was no sun yet on the window and I could open the window fully to get some air. I also put a fan before me and started.

I wanted to run 60 minutes, but at 30 minutes my groin started aching. It only became worse over time, but I wanted to finish my Conqueror English Channel challenge (yeah I run the channel instead of swimming it, spectacular, no?). So I held on till 45 minutes when I reached 4,17 km which was just what I needed to finish the challenge.

Happy I ran even if it was on the treadmill ☺

Cheers, Evy

Well done !And a run is a run whether outside or on the treadmill 👍

And yes , it was hot when I went out at 10:15 this morning 😐

Yeah, my weather app said it was 'only' 18 degrees. But when I felt the temperature through the window, it felt much warmer. And I felt bad last time I went out in the heat. So treadmill it is. I run much slower on the treadmill than outdoors kthough it feels faster). But as you say: a run is a run. Curious as to how it will feel on the treadmill after work when the sun is on the window and I can't open the window...

Good you’ve completed your English Channel challenge and well done for running through sciatica and piriformis. Blooming sore. 😊

I guess I am getting old? 😁 Naw it is my posture I fear, both when sitting and when running. But I don't know what I do wrong + I fear I am too lazy to follow advices...

It is warm just now for running, great you did it! Hope the ache is better now.

[Hidden in reply to tmbtrain]

The ache is better now, once I stopped running it faded away. I guess I didn't warm up sufficiently or so. Hope it won't pop up again, it does happen once in a while. So I will have to be careful and warm up properly.

You sound like you've got it covered. Great the ache has gone now 🙂
