Hi D .. to be honest I expected this to occur as the minute you felt reasonably good you went and did a whole lot of overload
you have to discipline yourself to give your body a chance to absorb the exercise you put it through even if it is surfing, it is still exercise
if you can get to running 3 times a week then you will get some consistency which you can build on
one good thing is that you are acknowledging that you tend to hammer yourself and you start off a few days easily but then the minute you are making progress you slip back to hammering the body unnecessarily and the house of cards comes down again
you need a minimum of 3 weeks of easy exercise with a minimum of 3 running sessions a week to make progress
nothing that breaks you down, all building blocks
once you achieve this you should be able to avoid all these niggles
Cheers

ps.. I am waddling OK, got to do 4 runs since last Sunday, so that is a big go forward
