So..... running - Page 148

Had some dodgy food out last night and my ankle was killing me so didn't sleep well. Strangely seems ok today though, no more stiff than the other one from all the steep downhill work and not warming up first.

Got the tail end of a cold so wasn't expecting much today, but after running 1.13km in the first five minutes (as reported by RunKeeper!) I decided it would be good to try for a sub-50-minutes 10k. Almost pushed it too far when I realised I had to run the final 300m uphill in two minutes but managed it in just over 49 minutes. Fairly happy with that. Would love to get closer to 45 but that's going to be a while off yet.

I beat my pb at Parkrun on Saturday. I didn't get my 20, just 2 seconds faster than my previous pb. However... I couldn't find my bike lock so I ran to the park which is 3-4k and I was taking it easy-ish listening to my iPod and basically fiddling about with it putting on some tunes. I got chicked by a woman with grey hair and passed by a man with a running push chair so I don't know how I managed my good time

Two okay runs and another disaster one. 12 miles steady Sat was fine, then 5 miles Monday with 1:30 400m (x8 with recovery); tempo run tonight, went fine until the last mile when after a mild stitch I'd cleared got major stomach cramps. Ran a 7:04 fifth mile (faster than planned, had virtually no pace control) before slowing which cleared the left side, but couldn't fully shake it until I got back (6 miles); not happy as it was extremely painful.

Schedule says 13 miles steady next, doing that Friday before my weekend, sure I can squeak out another 160m at the end.

Ooyah. I've been lucky with stitches *thankfully*. I'm interested what causes it, I know it's your intestines rubbing together and a friend gets them when she eats sausage rolls before she runs.

Well done Jonny!

Jmc-what ru training for again?

Sat: 18.5miles
Mon: 6miles in 55m 40s
Tues: 7miles in 1hr 10m 40s

Rest tonight so went to ANOTHER Marathon seminar!

They are all starting to repeat themselves now... still find them interesting & inspirational though.

Reading Half, April 1st. Will do the two castle too, mid-June but that's just 10k though my holiday mid-April makes that tricky.

irrc they don't actually really know what causes it (can be all sorts of things) and they don't know how to cure it. I just keep running through it and it goes away eventually. Damn annoying though.

Haven't run since last Thurs. Did a hilly, but very slow run and knee was agony the next day. Saw physio Mon and have been bruised since. Hoping to run tonight, but knee is aching again this morn. So frustrating!

jmc41 · 02-03-2012, 19:02

Yeah normally not too bad and even stiches are normally survivable, this was the entire stomach area and really bad, worst I've ever had anyway.

Strange one today, worked from home this morning and had loads to drink (like a litre before 7:30) then spent half the morning getting rid of that and having a bit more stopping at 11:15. Had half my pasta lunch I did yesterday about 10am.

13:45 went out for my run, had a few mouthfuls to drink about 20 mins before but still felt really dehydrated :s Stomach wasn't too bad but not perfect either; wondering if the intermediate pilates class did as much damage as it felt like. Still survived. Legs really ached though even from early on - the sort of "I've done 10 miles and my legs feel twice as heavy" aches. Then I realised, I've actually done over 36 miles in the last 7 days because I moved this weeks runs to Mon/Wed/Fri to avoid having to run while away at the weekend.

Not running again til Tuesday.

Hope your knee gets sorted Kate, not having a good run at the moment

I'm now fully immersed in Knee poopiness now... threw myself off the motorbike today doing 30mph and thwacked my already slightly jaunty knee.

Bit miffed as was improving on running and looking forward to one tomorrow. Back to square one for the moment and waiting patiently until it's improved again.
