Ouch!

Had a great start to the week. 21km on Tuesday night at 5:10/km followed by a steady 12 at 5:30/km. Nice start to a 70+km week.

Foul weather and the remnants of a cold made the decision for me to skip Thursday (not being a wuss, jut didn't think I needed a soaking to turn my cold into flu). I had a really hard gym session - legs only - on Friday, and got up on Saturday morning for a planned 20km and came to the same decision as on Thursday. Shit happens.

However, by Saturday afternoon, I had the worst case of DOMS I've ever experienced following the gym session on Friday. I got up on Sunday morning, not looking forward to anything in particular. I hit the trail, as it were, and it was all very pedestrian. I ran about 4km and decided to walk. My calf, which had been a bit tight following Glasshouse, was suddenly very sore and felt like a small tear. I decided on a hard walk from there. Aside of 1½km at the turn, I walked the rest for a 17km outing which gave me a little over 50km. Not the best ending to a week that had began so well.

Not too concerned but we'll have to see.
