1 hour pounding the not-very-mean streets of Melbourne this morning.
Training session #2 of 62 - so 60 (OMG!) to do. Not sure if that includes the BIG ONE itself.
Put a water bottle in my bum bag this time, but when I went to reach for it, it was wasn't there. Started to question whether in fact I'd imagined putting it in there at all. As luck would have it, the route I took today slightly overlapped on itself, and there was my water bottle lying on the pavement. Sweet!
Must tie up laces a little tighter in future.
Which aches and pains NOT to worry about? Fairly early on I felt a slight tightness in my left thigh muscle. I stopped a couple of times to stretch and rub it a bit. It didn't go away, but it didn't get any worse either. Again, I'm very paranoid about pulling a muscle and totally ruining my training schedule. Part of me wanted to stop and walk, just to be ultra-cautious. I carried on regardless.... and don't feel that I've done any damage. Fingers crossed.
Good news is that I improved my pace from 7:14min/km to 6:54min/km, so nicely within the 6:30-7:10 target pace.
