Hi TheEd,
I have hurt my lower back somehow and having some trouble moving around so I can't run at the moment. I've had this same pain before and it takes a few days to clear up. Probably the running contributes but I've been doing a lot of renovating work which is most likely the main cause.
This is probably a good time for me to take a week off running, no important races coming up for a few months. I have also been getting some continuing pain in the left leg, nothing serious but a week off will hopefully let the body freshen up before it gets any worse.
I've only been doing the program now for 11 weeks now but you might remember I had a fairly low base when I started having come off a stress fracture. I'm thinking about going through the off-training and build-up considering I already need to take some time off. Do you think that's a good idea, or would you suggest restarting the normal cycle after a week's rest?
Thanks for your advice,
Daniel
