  Having found myself injured with a Stress Fracture to my right leg, being forced to "bin" the marathon in Dublin, which I had done a lot of training for. But, as you may have gathered from previous posts the training had not really done what I was ho...

  After much deliberation I've decided not to do my long run today, there is no improvement with my leg at all. Just walking around caused a pain in my knee and down my shin. Whatever I've done to it has certainly caused me a problem. I've only got two...

  I've got some heavy work commitments at the moment which are causing me to miss a few training sessions. So its putting me "off schedule". Even more concerning however is the pain I've got in my right leg, and it seems to be getting worse. I'm not su...

  I haven't been able to run all week until today. My right lower leg is suffering some sort of injury, but I'm just not sure what it is. Could it be a shin splint type injury? I never had one before so I'm not sure. It feels like my leg just wants to...

  The area in front of my hip still felt very tight this evening and it took a couple of miles before the "stiffness" disappeared. It was very warm, no breeze and about 22 degrees. I'm not sure what to expect with these runs but can't help feeling disa...

  My planned bike ride didn't happen this morning, when I woke up it was raining. I've mentioned previously that I don't like cycling in the rain. It always makes me nervous when the roads are wet and slippy and I just don't understand how the narrow t...

  Well I'm still feeling very sore, a bit bruised, and movement is obviously limited as a result of the strain. I'm determined to handle the injury properly, and not rush my recovery as I believe that will do a lot more harm then good. So this is a per...

  It had to happen eventually.Sunday night is my Vets 7-a-side football night, and up until tonight I've been lucky enough to escape injury. That lucky streak ended this evening, when stretching my right leg out for the ball, I ended up with a groin st...

  Posted on Thursday April 26th, 2007 at 14:11 in injury, shakespeare marathon, easy day

  What was a nice easy run this evening turned into a bit of a nightmare. As I ran close to the grass verge on the side of the road to avoid a car (he clearly didn't care if he avoided me or not), I stepped into a hole and twisted my ankle. I've sprain...
