Not posted recently, probably due to everything being honky dorey. Saturday managed 12.2 miles sub 2 hours-then ran Sunday it mullered me such a struggle. It seems that my running shoes are about knackered, as my calves seem to ache everytime I run, insoles haven't helped. My long run Saturday is seventeen miles and I am worried about the distance its nearly three miles more than I have ever run before. I am entering the Gate Gallop on Sunday but it won't be competative, a recovery jog only. Moving up from 3 to 5 days a week is taking it's toll.
