Eat My Dust August

An old foe returns.
Cheers GM, BB Smile

Unfortunately, like the menacing return of Moriarty or Fu Manchu after years of absence, an old nemesis in the form of the evil Dr Shin Splints has returned to cast a shadow over the MLCM Training Camp in recent days.

I'm not sure how this came to be. Certainly my weekly mileage has not been excessive, and I can only think I've been running perhaps too fast on hard surfaces.

Anyhow, whatever the reason, they aren't fading at all quickly so I have no choice but to rest up for a few days. Lucky I still have 4 weeks before the half marathon... so it's not too serious.

Other than that, I'm pretty happy with training to date, but the weeks and months are rolling by very fast and the circled date with the Mt. Wellington pinnacle is looming large on the calendar. I have to say, even though it's still three months away, I'm feeling just a tad nervous.

Stupid shins.

Internal application of an alcoholic remedy will be applied.

Run. Just run.
