Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building
If I only could, oh…
Well — I can run again!
Not quite as pain-free as I’d like, but it’s a start. On Monday I tried it for the first time again — just 30 minutes, since I’ve learned to be careful … It went pretty smoothly, so on Tuesday I went for a second run, and on Wednesday a third. Thursday was run-free, then on Friday I went out for 1.5h … I was pretty fast (4:32 min/km), but afterward everything hurt, muscle soreness everywhere.
Overall the week looked like this:
- Monday: 30min run test & strength training
- Tuesday: 1h easy run and 1.5h swimming
- Wednesday: 2.5h KA3 training on Königstuhl and 0.5h running
- Thursday: strength training and 1h swimming
- Friday: strength training and 1.5h continuous run
- Saturday: 1.5h swimming
- Sunday: 4h easy aerobic cycling and 0.5h brick run
If everything keeps going like this, maybe the Ironman Frankfurt will actually happen after all …
