Good day coach
very true coach, and after finishing my 2k sessions, such feeling of contentment and happiness after completing it...

1k pace 7'25 avg pulse 119
Last k 5'48 avg pulse 151 ... Last 3k pulse was steady around 146-151.
Regarding the run,
Initially things were going nice, i was starting it slow, relaxed and enjoying my run but
Something peculiar happened 10 mins into the run as I was going down a slight decline, I got some niggles around my inner right ankle ...
maybe I plantar flexed to much while the foot was a bit too relaxed when landing my foot during the decline... and after this I've noticed this if there was any incline during the run I will get like an ant bite type of feel around my inner right ankle.
Then it was ok but although there was no major pain or something...but I felt uneasy...
I'm not sure if it was the shoes cause I've used 3 to 4 times before for my long runs( total mileage about 200km) but when I checked my log book the last time I had this issue early this month ...I was running in this particular shoe I had some inner ankle issue after the run....hmmmm... need to do further investigation...lol
then after nearly 30 mins, went back home changed into another favourite shoe of mine, initially it felt like the niggle in the right ankle might turn worse... but as I ran I quickened pace, shorter and increased stride, reduced my plantar flexion when landing by stiffening a bit, and landing on my midfoot instead on the ball of the foot...
Plus I changed my route and ran along the river bank which had a nice sandy and flat route...no decline or inline...so managed to complete my long run today... so far no pain or niggle but I'm monitoring the situation....I guess tomorrow morning after waking up I will get a better picture...hopefully its all good...cheers coach..
