Marathon Virgin by hashbridge

Almost sticking to my Wednesday resolution.. it's still Wednesday in some countries anyway. Just about.

So after a week long break and some poorliness post-Glasto, I finally got back on the roads last night and am pleased to report my first full proper 5 mile run, in 50 minutes. Had very little pain in my shoulder and none in the legs, and although I was puffing quite hard at times I didn't feel like I was quite at my limit. Considering I'd had a two week break and my last run was so disappointing, I'm very pleased with that.

My calves are quite tight today, so will give them a stretch later, but otherwise no adverse effects and I'm full of enthusiasm for my next run. Unfortunately I have a boozy weekend ahead so that might have to wait a little while. But I look forward to it, whenever it may be.
