Yesterday was a running day, and even though I've got loads going on, I know I needed to go out.

After the interval training on Saturday I've had a sort of pulsating niggle in my right leg, which is likely an overuse injury, and as I start on the first of three laps I hope to do around the park today, I visualise hotspots of pain both in that part of my right leg, and in my left ankle.

I can feel body ache against the exercise as it begins to wake up, ans I push it to the back of my mind as I ease into a steady pace. It's present but manageable, so I just ignore it and focus on the task in hand.

I'm tired, and haven't slept well because my youngest had a difficult night but I feel okay and feel like three like three laps is achievable.

The first hundred metres and the last hundred metres is fine, the rest is somewhere between laborious and agony.

I'm never on the point of giving up, but this is hard running, and I know getting through these types od training days are key to improving and increasing
