thanks lads

first run since dublin last night 5 slow miles
my right foot went dead again last night very very annoying
it ment i had to stop twice to leave the feeling come back into it, ive had this before and i just ran it out of it so hopefully this will happen again
i have asked physios before and all they could come up with was the laces were too tight(i have them as loose as possible and it doesnt happen every run) or a nerve problem but they gave me no solution.
so fingers crossed..i will try 4/5 miles later on

4 miles today foot not as bad as yesterday but still not right

SUNGOD · 04-11-2010 08:55AM

5 miles last night, foot still giving me grief
i did a bit research and it could be caused by tight calf/achillies which would make sense as both of mine have been tight since dublin
only solution seems to be stretching/massage
i have a thai massage booked today(present from GF) and if that doesnt help i will book physio for proper rub down, i prob should just book physio anyway.
either way i have to get it sorted soon as im in limbo at the minute, if i do run its only hoping to get a few miles in before foot flares up so i cant really plan a week/months training

SUNGOD · 14-11-2010 06:45PM

first run in 10 days as ive had a throat and chest infection that i just could not shake off.
i did my usual 6 mile route this morning, freezing but sunny really good running conditions apart from the odd icy patch
foot was starting tingle/go dead as the run ended but the last few runs it happened after 3/4 miles so hopefully its on the way out.
4 weeks to half, i will be a million miles away from where i had hoped to be come the 12th but hey thats life i will just train till the 12th and see how i get on .

Dukie · 16-11-2010 10:31PM

Hopefully the foot will clear up & you can get a good 3/4 weeks training in.

SUNGOD · 17-11-2010 03:17PM

yeah hopefully thanks dukie

kennyb3 · 21-11-2010 07:20PM

SUNGOD · 26-11-2010 08:29AM

hi kenny the foot seems to righted itself thank god
the half will just look after itself i have'nt being doing much lately so im not going to even guess what time i do, but i do know it will be slow

first run since sunday , just my normal 6 mile route

SUNGOD · 17-01-2011 12:39PM

just looking back on my log and i had only done 50 miles in the five weeks after dublin 2010 ,.
i only managed another 22 up till the new year.
72 miles in 10 weeks is pretty poor
started 2011 a bit better managing 56 in the first couple of weeks and decided to run the waterford half just two days before the 15th
i had entered a long time ago but because i had not got any real training done for it(longest run was 6 miles) i wasnt going to run untill i got a change of heart on thursday.
glad i ran it now really enjoyed it, i started slow 8:30pace just to make sure i wouldnt blow up and got quicker as the race went on finishing with miles of 7:30, 7:24,and 7:17

total : 69.1 miles

Dukie · 17-01-2011 01:57PM

Good start to the year Sungod, hopefully you've seen the last of the injuries

SUNGOD · 31-01-2011 08:47AM

i have only ran a few 5 or 6 mile runs since last post
i was hoping to get a few longer or faster runs in before dungarvan but it was'nt to be.
it was a glorious day for a race and i started just under 7:30 pace for the first mile this was'nt a conscious efort i jusr started running at a pace i thought i could keep up for 10 and after mile 1 i saw it was 7:30 so tried to keep all my miles under this.
felt ok till mile 5 then had a panic attack as i relised how much faster i was going compared to the half.
but i settled down again and felt ok again till about 8.5 when i just dug in and grunted, shouted and spat my way home , absolutly shattered for the few minutes straight after but quickly came around and i feel ok today so i will do a few slow miles later.
finished in 1:13:30 so its just under 40 seconds a mile faster then the half 2weeks ago so at least i know im going in the right direction

total miles :118.1

SUNGOD · 01-02-2011 06:59PM

1 x 6 and 1 x 7 mile runs
i did 2 x half mile @ 6:30pace during the 7 miler

total miles:131.1

SUNGOD · 16-02-2011 08:55AM

3 x 6 mile runs since last post, so basically im doing very little
i will have to have a good root down the back of the sofa to try find my mojo

total miles :149.1
