There is no point being brave about this. I've been in agony this week!
I'm just not as young, flexible or fit as I used to be and pounding the pavements takes its toil like swimming and my cross trainer never did. But, I'm persevering.
Two sessions this week along the waterfront in Wellington. Luckily the first on Monday was in the dark and it hid a multitude of sins. Today, it was broad daylight with a northerly wind on the home stretch which was much less attractive to passers by.
People keep telling me it will get easier and I know from experience that this will be the case. The question I keep asking myself - when will it feel better?!
My training buddy Amanda has legs about 6 inches longer than mine so her jog a run to me and a run to her is a sprint to me. Fortuantly she's having the same pain as me so we're hanging in there together.
Monday is back with the jog squad for what I am told will be our first hill run (well we are in training for the Incline event). Not looking forward to that at all.
Must write to Ron and ask him for some advice on keeping going. www.ronhillsalterego.blogspot.com
