Not a lot has been happening here in Wharfedale recently. It must be true because yesterday a reporter from the local newspaper telephoned for a chat to find out about my future plans ... post injury.
He had been reading this blog and knew about the injury but we had a long chat anyway. About possible plans for this year and next, and training, and the planning that goes into racing very long distances - nutrition, pacing, etc., and why ultra distance runners don't have such a high profile ...
And one or two other running related things. Not sure when, and if, anything will appear in print. Depends whether anything more important happens locally I suppose.
I know at the moment I'm only running every other day but using my usual percentage scoring system I reckon the worst run has been about 98% (where 0 is almost impossible to run and 100 is no pain whatsoever). So I'm feeling really good at the moment.
But running on consecutive days is a different prospect and I'll wait until I've seen the physio again (12 February) before I try that.
Right now though I feel as if I'll be able to take part in an ultra race in the autumn. No promises though ...
