Well, I did it! I did my big run- but I didn't just settle for 13km- I did 14km... the length of the C2S. I did it in 1hr and 32min... so its slower than my 9 and 11km pace (9.1km/h versus 9.4km/h) but my excuse is blisters. Big blisters- in fact blisters on top of old blisters on my foot arches! I managed to run the distance with them, with the pain kicking in at around the 5km mark. To add to my list of pains, I also had groin pain, hip pain, a little bit of knee pain :) So yesterday I was a cripple, and hobbled around like the old woman I have been behaving like, but today? Quite good suprisingly!!! Nothing creaked as badly as it was been doing. So maybe all this stretching and manipulating is starting to pay off. So I have some good news to report to the physio when I ring him. Maybe I won't have to give up running just yet!!!
My weekend has been not bad... I've had a couple of afternoon naps. I needed to as recovery from my big run! Last night Scoop and I went a local Indian restaurant which was delicious, and full of Indian families having catch-up and celebratory meals- it's gotta be good if Indians eat there!!! I tried this different type of entree: "bhupari" which is meant to be a "popular street snack"- it was like spicy Rice Bubbles!!! Very different! And mains was delicious, but will have to remember to come with a very empty stomach next time... nearly had to roll us out the door we were that full!
