Hi TheEd,
I didn't see your reply until I got back... sorry.
I did the 60 minute run and it went well, my fitness is clearly improving which is great to see, covered 9.95k.
Shins niggled a little in the last 2k but I stretched and iced them afterward so am quite happy.
Here are the stats:
Distance---Avg Pace---Avg HR----Max HR
1----------06:20------149-------157
2----------06:03------143-------146
3----------06:03------144-------149
4----------05:51------145-------150
5----------05:59------148-------155
6----------05:58------149-------156
7----------06:03------151-------156
8----------06:03------151-------155
9----------06:06------151-------156
.95--------05:52------152-------156
HR in the first k was quite high but I didn't do much in terms of warm-up so the body was probably trying to adjust to going from sedentary to running.
I've got to pop in to town this afternoon and I've discovered a running shop that does a 30 minute assessment of your running style in order to help identify any weaknesses and of course they hope make a sale on a new pair of trainers. I think I'll give them a try.
What's the plan from here? I'm trying to be patient with the shins, finding it a lot more challenging than I thought I would! I just want to be out running! :please:
What's your recommendation from here? I guess I'll be cycling tomorrow to continue the rehab time for shins?
Thanks for all your guidance to date!
