Janathon day 5/31 Little steps

by on Jan.05, 2011, under Janathon Juneathon

So for today Janathon I thought long and hard about what to do, legs still sore, so nice and easy..so I jumped on the bike for 15min, the seats on the things are huge and really uncomfortable , almost make me miss my bike seat, still gym was busy so I went and hid in there dark room, all went well.

After the bike, I did my weights, missing the legs ones, fininshed again with some abs work, then on the way out I thought I would test the old legs on the tread mill, so set pace to 6kph, and did 5min

Distance: 0.50 km

Relief after 5 min I was not in pain, my legs are still sore, but still no worse so, I stuck with taking it easy but at least I can ride/swim/walk and do weights, hopefully I be back to running next week sometime.

    Good plan switching up the exercises – sometimes there’s just too much shock impact from stamping your feet on the ground whilst running. Keep it up.

    Glad to hear you got through the walk on the treadmill without pain. Switching to using the bike was obviously a good idea. It is tough on the legs, running every day. Well done for keeping on going and *doing something*.
