This blog is mainly to help me and Ron (my fabulous coach) keep track of what is going on in my training. Good days. Bad days. Successes and failures. Aches and pains. That sort of thing. But please come visit once in a while to see how we're getting on!

Fifteen gentle miles and two fewer wisdom teeth

15M - double; recovery run & general aerobic run
5M am recovery run at ~6.45min/M with pack
10M pm general aerobic run at ~6.30min/M

I was fairly jaded this morning after yesterday's race. Surprising, because normally a 10K doesn't take too much out of me. It may have been sleepiness as much as anything. My calves hurt a bit too - the bottom half of them. There's no tenderness, I often get this after a race.

I squeezed in a general aerobic 10 miler too, which felt much better than the morning's run.

And more importantly, I also had my top wisdom teeth extracted. I had the bottom ones out years ago. These top ones had grown too far and had been causing me bother for a while (as a result of the ugly holes that had developed in them). Short term pain. Long term gain. Just like running.
