Soooo,
after another weeks rest and some advice from the Physio I headed out to a flat(ish) running course on soft ground - so I headed to Brockham Rugby Club and run around the fields 12 times!!!!
I went with Claire who kindly offered to run my snail pace and help me keep going. THANK YOU - no way would I have stuck to the 12 laps it took to run a meagre 10 miles.
My ankle is playing up and still killing me this evening - almost 2 decades of Basketball have left their mark and when it comes to the longer distances I can feel it again. Also my neck/shoulder clearly didn't like the long run either but its more a twinge than the full blown pain from before so I remain hopeful.
I have by now given up on any ideas of hitting a time that I might have secretly harboured - with the illness, sickness and injury and the thus reduced training it'll be a "make it round" kind of affair. But I will run it - no matter how slowly - so please keep sponsoring me!!
