Hi Ed,
Since last time I posted on here I have made some improvements. I set a 5k time of 24:23 a couple of weeks ago and 54:52 for 10k earlier this week and have also run my furthest yet which was 15k.
I started out following the program but found that I needed at least a day of rest in between to recover. Running the day after faster or longer runs I found that my right calf was very tight. Do you think this could be due to poor technique or poor balance? Any recommendations for how to improve recovery?
At the moment I don't want to overdo it and have just been running around 3 times per week as I feel like running every day could cause injury but I would like to keep more to a program. Would you recommend a training program with running 3-4 times per week?
Thanks,
Adam
