Ooh I'm in pain! I have been to see a fab sports physio. But I am at the stage of "it feels worse before it feels better".......but he says that by Thursday I will be as right as rain.

I never thought a spine could make the noises that mine made though - I am so glad I have got it looked at.

Well done to anyone getting the miles in this week.

Good luck with race JJ

And ouch Hypno - hope it sorts itself out soon - I have a hyperflexiable back so I know what its like when they have to crack it back in - yuck

Well so I went out did a lovely 13 miles this evening in Hyde park (2 loops and some other bits) and saw a flock of grey heron, a city fox (part black) and lots of sausage dogs - and despite me aiming to take it slowly I still ran it in about 2 hours

Got fracture clinic tomorrow morning as well to get an xray so that should be good to put my mind at rest

Good luck at the fracture clinic tomorrow, although it sounds as though it was just a niggle.

Hi peeps! It sounds like the walking (or running) wounded on here tonight, what with chiropracters, fracture clinics, etc. etc. I'll add to the number as I'm reporting in to say I have my GP appointment in the morning. Will let you know what he diagnoses. I also ordered my first set of sorbothanes too. After you guys telling me how brilliant they are, and our very own high-mileage sorbothane advert (Rich - that's you!) remaining uninjured with 100-mile weeks, I thought they must be worth exploring.

Am sitting with my feet up tonight and depending on Doc tomorrow I'll get out for a run later tomorrow. Off work on Thursday but I have a meeting at school so I won't get to run with the ladies so assuming I feel ok, I'll have a run at some point on Thursday, but I'll take it easy.

I know in fact the only one who isnt injured is Rich - go figure eh?!?

You're sounding a bit more positive tonight Chick at least - hope you get a diagnosis asap (I presume the bloods will take a while to come back from the lab...)

Hi Becky, yes I'm feeling much brighter today. I got a work meeting out of the way this evening too. I always get stressed when I have to present reports so that is something else ticked off the list.

I think Rich is made of tough stuff, that's why he is uninjured.

Week30
Mon23/3 Rest Day
Tues24/3 10K 47:34 (7:40/mile) (Pulse 98)

I was going to do some intervals tonight but it was very wet and blustery on the moor again - I don't mind wet but blustery, no thanks!!

So went and stretched the legs out on a 10K instead to keep ticking over.:D

All the injuries/illnesses will pass soon enough - just view them as an opportunity to get everything back to strength ready for the big races!:D

Hey! I'm fresh as a daisy, me...

OK, so I got a dead leg at football today, but aside from that

1 Month, 00 Days, 23 Hours, 23 Minutes and 41 Seconds

The one month to go warning siren is about to go off - exciting times for all FLMers.:D

The last month is actually very enjoyable usually as the last push in training is done with the prospect of a nice leisurely taper down to the race itself. And then even more rest post race.:D

Hope the excitement is starting to build!!!

I am very excited now - even though my back is temporarily out of order, I have used these few days to give in to tiredness, and so I will be fighting fit shortly.

I had been out of breath, not badly, but just like you do when you are at the tail end of a cold......and apparently it was because my ribs were squashed together, not giving my lungs enough space to do their thing. Now that my back has been pulled back into place, I can take a much deeper breath, which will hopefully help my running nicely.

At the moment, though, I feel incredibly bruised! But that should ease for a gentle run tomorrow, so I am told! It could be the best £40 I have spent!!! And he sponsored me for FLM too - bonus :T
