About Me

My photo
I'm not a serious runner, and I'm certainly not that competitive. I'm someone who has two children, reached her 40's and simply wants to stay fit and feel good. I am writing this blog to share my thoughts, experiences and hopefully inspire others to take up running and explore green spaces in a city and further afield. I work as a freelance journalist and a part-time school librarian, and write this blog purely for love. Please feel free to comment and I'll do my best to reply and continue to write an entertaining blog.

Tyntesfield 10k - just four days to go!

So the newly established Tyntesfield 10k run is just four days away and am I worried? Yes!

To begin with I was concerned about the hilly terrain, but then again in such beautiful surroundings, this should inspire me on and it's also off road. Phew! No, my main concern now is my right leg. I've got shin splints. Too much training on roads for the Bristol 10k which I didn't end up doing due to illness. I've seen a physio at the University of Bristol Sports Medicine Clinic and have another session on Monday, so fingers crossed I should be OK to do it. Though I know shin splints don't disappear over night. Lots of intensive stretching required.
