Maybe Santa Claus will help, because everything else seems to go wrong and I cant get more than a few weeks without another piece of my ageing body breaking down! I'm sure nobody wants to hear about YET another Liam Excuse/Injury, but I decided that the start of my training programme for Virginia Beach was obviously going too well, so I decided to pull a tendon in my left foot! Meant I could sit on my arse for three weeks and do no running!
Well, the good news is that its 90% cleared up now, and I have started running again. Monday night I rejoined the Dublin Hash and took part in an easy low key run on a chilly evening. Wednesday and Thursday I went to the gym and ran short 2Km runs each evening, hard enough to test the foot was OK, but short enough not to cause too much presure on the foot - Two short runs, but the foot seems to have got through the ordeal OK, and hopefully I can get going again - Don't hold your breath, something is bound to go wrong before the Year is out!
