Week 10 of 13 These exercises that I am doing to fix my twisted mind spine and hips have given me a whole bunch of new niggles (DOMS probably) in the muscles that have hardly been used before. So instead of going for my 8km run required by my program I jumped on the bike for a brisk 60 mins. Other than a sore bum from the seat (how does Lance do it ?) I finished feeling pretty fresh. I then continued with my daily stretching and strengthening exercises. The DOMS in my legs, hips and lower back were feeling a tad better and I finished nearly all the exercises as per instructions. I have decided not to tackle the Bondi Barefoot on Sunday. Too many little pesky niggles lay dormant that I fear could blow up with a play in the sandpit. It's disappointing but realistically it's Nail Can next Sunday and SMH in May that are priorities. I aim to run 10kms tonight and then a gentle 7/8km on Saturday followed by 18km on Sunday, however I may drop the Saturday run if my legs are still complaining. Sometimes I feel like I'm constantly walking on egg shells trying to avoid injury... Mood --->
