I went out running for 5km last Saturday, hoping it would be a leg loosener for Sundays planned 25-26km.
The pain in the small of my back was still there (caused by trying to do some core exercises over the last few weeks). But while running (and for a good while afterwards)the pain spread beyond my back, down my hamstring, and into my calf.
Running has become, if not quite impossible, very uncomfortable. I missed my long run, and haven’t run since (a full week today). Only today did walking downstairs not hurt, and i reckon i’ll do 5-6 miles over the weekend – but for now no marathon in kildare in May. At this stage i might try Portumna in June, a 50km run on 12th June - http://forestmarathon.com/
I cant say i’m overly disappointed – the training has been a real drag recently and probably the mental state didnt help…..
