Last week just three runs: 7K on wed, then 19K on fri and 15K on sat. Recovery from Länsiväylä has taken some time. I’ve now had continuing problems with the muscles of my right leg since Karhu-relay. Understandably, Länsiväylä did not help. On the other hand, this is much better than the knee problems last year. I can still do most of the exercises.
This morning a 20K in nice weather. The first Ks very good c. 4.00 / km pace but after 10K the pain was increasing, so I had to slow down, and eventually came home earlier than planned. My near-term aim is still a 10 000 metres race in three weeks. It requires a couple of hard ones on track – with a good leg.
