If I tell you that I was at work from 8.30 this morning, and the first thing that went right was at quarter to three this afternoon, it's fair to say that it hasn't been the best of days.
My calf muscle is still a bit sore and knotty, but is much better, but my ankle isn't great. Having put my running shoes on for the first time today since my long run, I wonder if I've found the cause...the tongue on my new shoes sits just under my ankle, but as I walk it nudges against my ankle. It's only slight, but multiply lots of nudges over lots of miles, and it could just be the trigger.
I think a return trip to the running shop tomorrow for some advice is on the cards.
I went swimming this evening, and within the first two lengths I was getting bad cramp in my toes. I persisted to 26 lengths, but it just wouldn't go away. The water was colder than usual, and I decided enough was enough.
The good news today is that I ordered an Asthma UK t-shirt and collecting tin ready for my car boot sale, and they arrived in the post today. I'm really impressed by the help I've already had from Asthma UK, and am looking forward to my marathon journey with them.
