So... Things all sort of fell in a heap. I had to move in with mum for the moment, but I managed to find another awesome apartment which I’ll be moving into on Friday. It’ll all pick up. Hopefully. Eventually.
One thing I was a little worried about (which was pointless, and kinda dumb because I had far more important things to worry about) was my marathon training. It’s less than two months away, and up until yesterday I hadn’t even run once in more than two weeks. Yikes. I did sign up for the marathon though, because I need to aim for goals and this is a pretty good goal.
I didn’t expect to run very far yesterday, but I hoped for 25 kilometres so I could say my training was somewhat on track. I managed to do a little better than that. I ran from mum’s place in Wanniassa to Lake Burley Griffin in the city, around the lake and back to mum’s again. 27.78 kilometres, all up. I felt like I even had more in the tank after I’d finished. So I’m satisfied. Legs are a little... Well, I’m not going to lie. Legs hurt like a son of a bitch. My left knee is discoloured, and it makes odd squishy noises sometimes. It swelled up pretty big yesterday, but it’s more normal knee-sized today. My back is really tight as well. I could do with a massage. Maybe I’ll fork out for one in the next couple of weeks. A nice painful deep tissue remedial massage.
