Type: Rest
HR Zone: N/A
Schedule: Rest
Actual: 18 min Easy (1.6 miles)
Due to the re-shuffle of my schedule I planned on going for an easy 30 minute run. As I started my run I thought I'd have a change and I went down the old railway line behind our house. It was very nice until I turned around at the end and about 1.5 miles into the run my right leg exploded in pain. OK maybe that's making it more dramatic than it was but it wasn't nice. I hadn't taken any Ibuprofen before this run as I thought it wouldn't matter as it was such a short run. Wrong decision!!! I hobbled home and iced my leg.
Today's lesson : Take the Ibuprofen before EVERY run until these shin splints calm down.
