Current running-related anxiety…
I’m so anxious to be running.
I still have shin splints. I still need to REST.
I have a cold right now after a hectic week.
I haven’t properly run in over two months.
I know my fitness is going to take a hefty kick up the arse to get back to where I was, post-Berlin, so that I can train to improve my running and make Amsterdam half marathon a fun race.
OMG I’M SO STRESSED ABOUT THIS.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*weeps*
After a talk with Knox Robinson about my worries, the best solution seems to be to jump in a pool and gain strength and to purchase a bike to work on my fitness and develop the muscles in my legs while I’m not running, especially my weaker glutes and hamstrings.
I somehow need to find the funds to buy a bike so that I can cycle more regularly… Anyone know where to start looking for an affordable road bike? Any recommendations are welcome: sarahmei@imrunningipromise.com
(Anyone selling or looking to give away a bike also very welcome).
I ran a half marathon in Berlin one week and cycled 10 miles through Paris the next. This week has been GOLDEN. I’m loving my new attitude to MOVEMENT.
