At this very moment, I should be about ¼ of the way through the Chris Brasher Memorial 10K run which is taking place in Richmond Park. As I related in an earlier post, this event has been the target I have been aiming for since I have begun running again. Sadly, I overdid the training two weeks ago and have been regretting it ever since, limping about and muttering under my breath. After lots of ice packs and ibuprofen, it is improving but not quickly enough for me to run 10k today – a tentative test run on Tuesday lasted all of 5 minutes. Although I am disappointed I can’t run today, I know that doing so would mean further problems so, for once, I will do the sensible thing and bide my time – especially as I am looking forward to some nice training runs whilst in on holiday in Cornwall in a month or so.
🙁 that’s a shame. maybe next year ?
