No Parkrun for me yesterday morning as a large number of the Manchester ones were cancelled because of compacted ice (before Storm Bert rapidly warmed up the air).
Saying that, I probably wouldn't have been in a suitable state to run anyway as raised a few too many glasses to Tommy Muir on Friday evening.
Instead, I had a booze-free day yesterday and headed out for a run this morning. Not sure if it was the head wind, the mild temperature or lack of fitness, but I felt like Gundogan attempting to track back this morning!

Sat at home desperate to get out but it’s still chucking it down and windy down here. Ran Thursday in the snow, Tuesday (run club) when it was freezing cold, not sure I want the treble of being soaking wet through and blown around like a rag doll.

Parkrun (207)
23:36 , Fastest Parkrun of the year and my second fastest ever. 3 weeks off the booze and running every day this month helped.

Did a 10km road run 2 weeks ago, in an effort to get ready to do a 10k race to use up an entry for a pal who was injured. Instead ended up injuring myself by getting a sore knee when running downhill at about 7km.
Bit gutted, physio session hasn’t really helped, other than lightening my walllet. Her main advice was I need to strengthen my core/do Pilates, which I don’t disagree with, but doesn’t help with my immediate knee problem.
Swimming still ok to do, but been out walking today and can still feel the knee - pain behind the kneecap, which I’ve never had before. Will try some cycling this week to see if that’s ok. I could cope with running less, but to only be able to swim would drive me bananas as I’m not the greatest fan of it really. Even once a week is a struggle.
