Week 7 Done

Week 7 completed today after a couple of days enforced break. During the second run on Saturday I'd picked up a muscle pain in the leg which I thought might be sciatica related. It was slightly better on Sunday so instead of the bike ride I went for a long steady walk and this cleared the pain, which is good. Gave it a complete rest on Monday then finished Week 7 today. The rest must have done some good as I ran further in the 25 minutes than before and it was much easier running. Feeling good.

Well done. It's so important to listen to your body and take rest days isn't it?

Well done. It's also a good reminder of why it is so important to take our rest days and also listen to what our body is telling us. Best wishes.
