17th April - Total disaster

Total disaster - have now not run for nearly three weeks due to sore shins, with only 12 weeks to go and minimal running in the last 6 months, getting very frustrated and worried about it. (the trouble is its all self inflicted by doing to much running without the back ground - should have known better, but got carried away) Had a very painful trip to the sports massuer so I'll have to see how things settle down this week.
On the plus side my Cyling is going very well with a solid Easter including rides of 115 (can I run a marathon after this?), 50 and 65 miles over the holiday weekend. The 65 mile ride was done immediately after a 2500m swim and so was particularly pleasing at the end of a hard weekend. Since Easter I have continued to pile in the cycling and swimming (now up to 3k and I can't believe the difference a wetsuit makes) and am still averaging 15 - 17 hours a week, but the running!!!!!!!
