HM attempt!

Hi all you runners out there.! I set out on my second 10 miler on Sunday but calf pain made me halt half way πŸ˜₯ I think it will therefore be a spontaneous "if its feeling ok I'm keeping keeping on" situation . Planning mid October date πŸ˜„

Sorry to hear this, Bubs, but you did the right thing by stopping and not making it worse. Hope you are recovering now.

Not too bad. I will try 2 miles this evening to see how the land lies. I REALLY want to do the HM by mid October so don't want to push my luck too far.

Oh, bummer! Do take care. Make sure you warm up feet, ankles, calves, quads and hammies more than usual before your run tonight. Then stretch really well afterwards. A bit of patience now can go a long way. Fingers crossed for you.

All the best xxx

That's ok, you just go again when you are ready. Stretch and strengthen and when you're out there and you feel good you can go for it 😊

Not what you're looking for?
