Hi TheEnd,
Sorry for the lack of updates, unfortunately real life got in the way last week. Had to take an unplanned trip to Lesotho and it ended being a three day stay so missed Day 3 and 4. I know I shouldn't make up workouts, and since Day 3-8 with the 2km reps is the key part of the program I've just kept things ticking over and will start Day 1 tomorrow? I will have to go back to Lesotho again (I'm sorting out my passport, live in SA but am a Lesotho citizen) but that trip will fall on 11/12 Feb so that will be Day 9/10 and I will have enough time to recover for the paced 5km on Day 12.
Speaking of recover. This calf niggle that affected my January training, it comes and goes, but it's definitely not a tear/strain, otherwise I wouldn't be able to run at all. What is the best course of action, stretching/strengthening. Simply resting doesn't fix it, and have realized 1 hour is probably the longest I can run for now
Thanks
