My mojo is about to get a kick up the arse with a very rainy trail run :-) I mean it's CHUCKING down out there and I have a new Rab rain jacket to test out!

Lemon FB keeps showing me photos from 2012 when I was lighter, fitter and was having a really good running year...I prefer not to be reminded ;-)

Having said that, this morning on my run I told myself that lunch would just be hummus and carrot sticks but when it came to it, two slices of Morrison's Muesli bread + butter found their way onto my plate. That's not going to shift the excess lard is it? :-(

Went to A&E. Total waste of time. My Physio should not have said to get x-ray. So no x-ray done. Nurse said looks like hamstring strain. No running for 2 weeks.

That's 2 hours of my life I'd like back.

A hamstring strain sounds better than anything diagnosable via an X-ray, I'm thinking...
Ran to Zumba Strong, class cancelled due to low numbers :(

Ran some lovely hill reps in the rain instead :)
ITB is niggly again :) Lots of cross training and no hills for a bit, it was fine during TBC.

Slight change of run plan, it stopped raining and we ran through town after dropping my car at garage for MOT. But I did enjoy it despite being slightly disappointed at the lack of rain to test my jacket in. Good to get a run done and I feel better after my afternoon of being miserable!

Hope the hammie recovers quickly Kim.

GWS Kim and meanwhile keep me company on the injury bench so I don't get too (more) grouchy.

You too then Linds. I mean, everyone's welcome and we will squeeze up but I don't think many people want to be here.

Fleecy - I just felt a bit of a fraud going there in the first place but thought better to be on the safe side. I'll be delighted if 2 weeks of no running is the end of it!

Hope we're all off this bench soon!

About This Thread

Maintained by Mandymoo
Welcome to the 700 miles in 2017 thread, everybody welcome :-)

The thread motto is:

'700 miles is neither necessary nor sufficient'

All you have to do is run about 1.91 miles per day or 13.46 miles per week or 58.33 miles per month and take a picture when you get to 700 miles of either you or the spot you reached the target or both if you want to. And if you go under or over 700 miles nobody will mind.

Join in the chat on the friendliest thread around - all things discussed and sometimes even some running is talked about.

Happy running :-)
