So this stupid leg niggle doesn't seem to go away that quickly, and I had to stop my long run today.
This leaves me with twindling confidence for my run, as I only managed to complete 1 run over 30km so far.
Next weekend we would do a race simulation or long brick, which I purely want to do for the longer run after the bike, but if this thing isn't gone by then, no point in running really. So I'd have maybe one more shot at a long run the week after... and I thought maybe I should do this water running for the next 2 weeks and then do a good long run...
But I have no idea how it works.
I could easily do it in the Bay here as it's going to be hot all week, and that way it's minimum time investment walking 3 mins down to the beach.
As a beginner with this, would I just take a pool noodle with me. I know those who do it often can do it without any floating devices, but I don't think I'll be coordinated enough straight away. I know there are belts for this, worth getting one ??
And why can't running be like cycling and swimming... it's such a fricken rollercoaster ride for me... one week great, on week shit, so I can't really get any consistency and build up mileage properly. Shits me.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated, that running has me worried a little.
Oh and maybe an advance warning: might be lots of question coming in the next few weeks
