Got a good nights sleep last night and woke up this morning with some aching legs......
The tops of the thighs and the lower calfs (Soleus) are feeling tight from the run yesterday, not injured, just general muscle pain after hard work.....
No plans to do anything today, and an easy run on the treadmill in the hotel tomorrow night....
I have been analysing the data fom the run yesterday, and am very surprised I managed to last the full 10km looking at the HR. This was around 25 beats higher than I would have expected for the pace I was running at. I could put this down to the poor preperation, but still seems very high.
I spent 7km (31 minutes) with my HR above 90% of my max (205bpm). Most literature I have read states that this should only be possible for 5-10 minutes.....
Not to worry, other than achy legs I am feeling fine today and looking forward to getting on with the cycles...
Best Regards.
