After missing my run on Friday as I was away for the weekend, it was with some trepidation that I set out last night to do another 3K. This week is my second week at 3K and I thought I’d felt some discomfort in my left arch after running two days in a row last week. So I was a little concerned. I needn’t have been, as the run was fine. I’m starting to get to my current fitness barrier (out of breath) by the end of a run now, rather than me feeling it in my feet or lower legs, which is great progress. I’m still treading very carefully though in adapting to this new form of running. The last thing I need is training-induced injury.
I have started to notice that I can feel it in my arches the morning following a run. This is no more that what you feel the day after a gym session, so I’m not worried. My feet need to strengthen themselves for the extra use, so I reckon this is to be expected.
Looking forward to finishing this week and stepping up to 4K next week.
