This time I stopped for a 3 minute walk in the middle to give my foot and knee and ankle a break, and it was much better. Then managed to do the last half of the route actually _running_. Still a bit worried about overdoing it and seriously re-injuring my right foot. So I will take things carefully.
Aiming for a third run this week and one yoga session, plus dancing on the weekend, but I’ll play it by ear.
Finally: the rain has gone.

Managed 15mins of running before sore knee/foot combination put a stop to that. I’m really not happy with the pain I’m getting. I think I’m going to have to give up and go and see the podiatrist. Boo.
Meanwhile, I’m going to do walking instead of running, because I can’t handle doing so little exercise.
Oh. It took me 5 minutes longer to walk a route I usually run.

Vetoed the kneeling poses and had much less pain afterwards. But discovered that the salute to the sun motions are actually really rough on my knee.
Will these aches and pains never end?

Argh! Under 5k again! I guess I just can’t run 5k in 30mins… though I reckon I get a bit faster each time. If I ran 3 times a week I reckon I could get it happening.
First time running at night. Cars! Wore my glowy cycling jacket for safety and was very grateful I did.

Think my timer got stuffed up, so I ran further than usual, and ran faster. Though I was running in the afternoon rather than first thing… either way, I got cramps so I had to walk for about 5mins at the end. Argh. But I still got i 5k of solid running. Yay.
do museums love us back?
Pinky articulates my latest… persistent problem with my course.
Can has critical reflection?

Felt pretty good. Had to run with a long sleeve tshirt over my normal tshirt because I can’t hack the cold mornings any more!
A bit cranky I haven’t made 5k in 30mins, but I figure I’ll get there. Slowly but surely.
No pain and recovered well from last run. Yay yoga, yay taking it a bit easier. Thinking about 3 runs this week.

Tireder than I usually am – need those 3 runs a week to keep my fitness up.
Felt some bad pain in my right foot (the bung foot) at first so had to do some stretches.

Still not quite as fast as I’d like, and a bit puffy today. I think 3 days a week is better for improving, but I’m just easing in to it so I don’t hurt myself again.
Next week I should be up for 3 runs per week again, and I should see more improvement. But otherwise, I’m quite happy with this – no pain, reasonable rhythm.
