Note

Left shin pain increased overnight, it's on the inside and feels the same as when I've had it before. At rest it's fine, hopping on one leg is not. If that's not grounds to not run then I don't know what is. Plan at the moment is to assume that this is going to get worse with running, i.e. finally get myself a bike like I've kept telling myself to do but this time for real, strength and conditioning, and see what happens. With just my input so far and dealing with this in April first year and in March second year (huh, weird), the first time I switched to the watt bike for two-three weeks and it sorted itself out. Last time we went for the more measured approach. Just frustrating really, but unless this is a freaky, didn't-sleep-right accident, which it probably isn't, gonna need to back off.

Legs didn't have a session in them, very obvious from the first rep, wasn't much to rest from so ditched the rest.

Am mildly concerned by the light discomfort on the inside left shin, do not get it at all when not running which is good. Worse when I start running than when I've been going for a bit.

Went for the session, legs were sore af from the strength session yesterday but figured a good enough warm-up would give me enough to eek out the session. Legs were still feeling pretty shite when I started but I was happy to see only just slower than the usual numbers at the beginning. I immediately get fucked up by a fat stitch from probably the apple I ate after lunch two hours before and decide I can't get anything done with it, it's just getting worse and I'm only four minutes in. Stop the session and finish a slow run. Big fat bummer, my data also stopped working in the flat since yesterday so I also don't even have fake WiFi anymore. Shit day.

Abandoned the double day today because I would have had to run then walk home to get my breakfast, horrible.

Staying on the grass a bit but it was gang muddy

Sunday Jan 24, 2021 #

Note

It's been two days, the pain has largely left the back of my right knee but there's one in the front outside now since yesterday, not linked to knee and not that close to the collision site, so not sure what it is. Will take up more stretching to see if it sorts itself out, but it very much feels like something I can easily run through.

Taking out the Saucony's for their second skrrt, leg pain feels like a bruise, didn't go away, felt perfectly manageable. Beautiful day but consequentially way too busy in some bits.

Bailed to KF in the hopes of an okay tempo, and decided that Crags was the best option for power hills. The ice was horrendous in parts and spent a lot of time sticking to the edge of the path but I think I got it done.

Ploddy. Struggled to sleep, my right leg has a sore part, backside of the knee and outside, around biceps femoris. Gonna need to stretch something out because it is mildly uncomfortable to walk/hop on one leg. Calm during run.

Mudclaws have great grip. Left wearing a jumper but didn't realize I didn't have a shirt on under it, felt suspiciously cold until I realized. Blackford is some prime sledging territory. Lovely sunny evening.

Didn't quite have paces improve over the session like I wanted, but felt like a solid block. Consistency every week is looking good and am playing the long game so no mind.

Was still getting discomfort in my feet until I realized that these shoes have extraordinary amounts of cushioning around the heel. Started heel-striking and the discomfort mildly went away. Because of this, downhills felt lovely but uphills felt deathly. Not ideal. Mid-striking is definitely the way to go. May have to keep these for flat plods and find a solution to be my go-to because this won't do, spent too long forcing myself to stop heel-striking and now that it's more natural not to these shoes really want to bring me back to the dark days.

Don't trust the new shoes yet so we might see is cross into 1000k on the Brooks, dreamy. 3x8[2] + 4x4[1], a little rough and found myself almost stopping after the third four but ended up finishing the job. Felt alright, intended to start easy and get faster, didn't do that great a job but it's not bad. Was quite a busy day, not that much time to learn stuff.

Alice offered pfh, Felix asked as well, was meant to be. We had an icy time in Blackford so Alice bailed on Pentlands, but Felix and I went on like good soldiers do. The fat climb was a toughie, but A+ snowball conditions, beautiful stuff. Wind hurt on the ridge, and felt like I'd had enough when we were coming down. As much as I was done with the run, the run wasn't done with me, and neither was the ice. Bit of suffering never hurt nobody, easy money.
