My confession - no run today. Last time I took a day off was the 17th Oct but I still feel whimpy. I slept badly which is so normal for me after a race, I wake up in the night with aching legs. I always used to cramp in the night but straight after I cross the finish line in a race I take a magnesium sachet now, that seems to help and drinking mineral water throughout the evening. I'd planned a recovery run but could not get myself to go out of the door first thing in the morning. I went for a 2 hr hill walk with my wife in the afternoon and we didn't enjoy ourselves, we felt cold with the wind from start to finish. Tomorrow normal service will be resumed. |
