Abs Swims, Bikes and Runs

"I may not hear the Rocky theme song, or see the sunset anywhere, but for me, this may be a sort of conclusion. An understated, rainy-day-sneakers sort of conclusion. An anticlimax, if you will. But the long and the short of it is that this kind of conclusion fits who I am. I didn't start running because somebody asked me to become a runner. One day, out of the blue, I started to run. Simply because I wanted to." Murakami

Listen

After a big scare last Thursday, I'm back on my feet. I'm doing something every single training manual and coach says one must do: listen to your body. I hadn't felt pain like I felt last week in a long time...like 10 years. Which is around the last time I was training this hard.

I put in a 40 min easy run today...must have covered about 5 kms. The legend PP and his missus were walking around at Sankey park too...the boy still looks fit enough to start lapping me in no time if he fancies it. Thankfully he just kept walking with the missus. Inspiration of course to see him walking around. Just the kind of role model one needs to achieve a goal that will take a lot of hardwork. Legend.

So the heel is better now. I'm going to embrace ice every day from here on...I don't know why I took so long to do so in the first place! I should be back on the long runs in another week or so.
