What a windy afternoon. I got blown along and stopped dead in my tracks both during the run. But it was a joy to be out running again and the wind is warm so I'm not complaining at all.
The foot is getting better so it will soon be all systems go again, but building up slowly.
I practiced the ChiRunning method again today. I have borrowed the DVD from Chuggy and it makes the book more understandable once you have seen someone using the method. It felt good in my legs and arms for most of the time but towards the end I must have been doing something wrong as I finished the run with lower back ache. I am not expecting to get it all right at once and I think I was probably trying too hard to try everythng at once so I will make more effort to stay relaxed next time and concentrate more on one thing at a time. Coming back from 4 weeks of not running seems to have made me forget everything I had learned about it.
I have a sports massage tonight, courtesy of my Pilates teacher which I am looking forward to.
Pilates last night was good, some difficult moves and I couldn't do them all, but I can feel it helping my core already.
