Least favourite session of the week: My calves are still tight and sore from my run session on Thursday night and I was struggling to walk on Friday. Saturday's hilly ride also did not help with the issue. Instead of running with the group (program was 15km) on Sunday, I decided to just walk for a few hours instead. My calves felt sore as I tried to do a few small runs so I decided to just do what I could.
I ended up walking for 2 hours which was approximately 10km. It wasn't my favourite session of the week as it wasn't a run. I also had to break the boredom of the walk by listening to my iPod which I haven't done in years. The music I had loaded on the iPod was from the 2011 Run for the Kids.

Advice of the week: Learn the difference between fatigue and laziness. There is a level of fatigue that still lingers after doing an big event. I am still trying to get my body back into the training schedule and so far, I can only do what my body allows me to do.
What I’m looking forward to next week: This weekend (Sunday), I have my first event. I am running (using this term very very lightly) a half marathon as part of the Run Melbourne event. I have posted about my level of hesitations about this event before. Due to the lack of run-fitness I have, this will be just a long run day with a few thousand other runners. I am looking forward to this event as I love being amongst the atmosphere of others being fit.
