Darling Point
Week 6 of 18
11km | Easy
My program had me down for 11km for the long run in this my easy week. Blkbox and Sydney Gal agreed to also run a shorter distance today, so we set off from my place bright and early. It was lovely running down through Woollahra and then down through Darling Point for a brief stop at McKell Park with its stunning views of the harbour.
I was a tad tight in the heel/plantar f-thingy, which stems from me being unable to give it a full stretch in the calf for ages. Still, it didn't really inhibit me in any way. I'm sure it will fix itself up when I get full mobility back in the achilles.
Now off to Bronte Beach for a refreshing dip (water temp is 16C at the moment !).
Mood: --->
Are you massaging the heel/plantar thing? Its so easy to do - just put a golf ball in a shoe box and roll your foot up and down over it. Or you can use a small plastic Coke bottle with frozen water in it. You can do it while sitting at the desk or watching TV. Easy :-)
Lucky bastard! We make do with a swim in the pristine Molonglo River.
I'm a big one for the 'foot rolling on an iced coke bottle' trick.
Glad to hear the achillies doesn't seem to be too big a deal - hope it's 100% soon.
Nice work on the training of late ;-)
