Running

My left leg is, what is technically referred to as 'proper fucked'. I've been ignoring a hip injury, which seems to cause hamstring strain during touch rugby matches. Had our last of the season on Tuesday, so I went all out. Twisted my left ankle, and took a hard hit in the thigh, to cause one of those week long 'dead legs'. I then, as usual, woke up with a strained hamstring, and a sore hip.

There's some sort of hellish synegistic injury combo going on. Yet I keep thinking a long slow run will shake it off. Might actually go for one over the weekend if I can physically get going. Its 0C here and hailing. I love running in nasty weather.

Went for a trail run on Sunday. Winter arrived, very abruptly, with a full on blizzard. I was somewhat under dressed, so had to keep the pace up, despite complaints from my left leg.

Great run. I find road runing to be a battle with myself, and trail running to be a battle with myself and the terrain. Winter trail runnning is a battle against yourself, the terrain, and the weather. Proper excellerating :D
