I managed a half marathon at the weekend, taking my mileage for November up above the 100 mile mark, which I'm incredibly pleased with. The calf felt really tight so I booked myself in for a sports massage. Without doubt, sports massages are bloody painful. Strangely, the left calf and the quads were more painful then anywhere else, even though it's the right leg that's giving me trouble. However, I feel like it all must be good for me if it hurts! Following the massage I felt like pushing things a little, and did a decent 7 miles at 7:40 per mile pace. It feels great to actually run, although I still wouldn't say I'm allowing myself into top gear yet.
