The Daily Run

Running slightly better again, but now is the time to be careful

So today was better again. Not amazing by any stretch. But better.

2.5km on the run at a very slow 7:21 pace. But, thats definitely a little quicker without thinking than the last few days. I felt strong enough that I could continue on, but the leg definitely was saying “hey man, like, is this 100% necessary?”.

Ive still got an issue there, but im a tiny bit more confident every day that it’s getting better not worse, even with continued running. I just need to ensure I keep rolling that leg out on the foam roller, it does seem to help. And it’s no where near as painful as it was a few days ago.

The Running Gear

Ran in the new 2XU shorts today. They are super soft, really great fit. They are a little thicker than the Asics 5″ shorts ive been wearing. I wonder how that will play on a hot day. But it’s raining and muggy today, no issues at all. Do love the fit though, so far, I recommend them.

Again with the ASICS Superblast. Just no choice right now. I could probably throw the Novablast 4 on actually for some plush-ness under foot. But the Superblast are feeling more and more in-tune with my feet as each run passes. The real challenge is going to be NOT buying a pair of the new colour ways releasing in March, and holding out for the Superblast 2, which I read is out around May/June.

So slight progress again, but it’s definitely a frustrating time. But perhaps, the rest my body was trying to tell me I needed?
