March maundering.
Another 5km tonight to bring the running month to a close (tomorrow being a rest day). Unusually, tonight's run caused a blister on my heel. Closer inspection revealed a tear in the fabric at the back of the shoe, probably where it's caught on the orthotic, and the resulting mangulation* birthed the blister. Rather annoying, but nothing that can't be remedied.
Tonight's 5km brought my total for the month to 98km, with barely a twinge to mention, certainly no genuine injury as such. Making it, all things considered, perhaps my best ever month of running. And I followed it with a decent stretching session, which was actually tougher than the run. Feels bloody good now though. I think the difference being that I'm now using stretches that target the troublesome areas, and so can feel them doing some good. Or maybe that's the post-run whisky**?
Whatever, it's been a good month. Now to tackle April, which begins on Sunday with a 13km longie.
But first, a rest day.
