I am currently willing my legs to recover from last Sunday! I was incapable of walking properly on Monday but the legs are gradually coming round. That said, I cannot run at all as yet! I have been swimming every day since Monday and that seems to help loosen them off. I went to watch the Inter-Services Duathlon yesterday. There were some great performances by the RAF guys and gals but we are way behind the Army in terms of strength in depth. Was going to get some pics for the Blog but my camera packed in 8-( Well done to all the RAF participants. It was a shame that Jamie Eliott broke his seat post as he leaped onto his bike! Jamie was running well too and he would have been a counter for the RAF for sure. These running bike mounts seem to cause gradual stress on seat posts, as Greg Mac suffered the same problem a couple of years ago.
Anyway, more recovery for me but I hope to be back to full on training next week. I am spinning on my bike today, which I am really looking forward to. As for tapering, I may stick to my normal easy few days before an event. The 3 week taper for the marathon didn't seem to give me any extra oomph! In fact, I felt a bit stale. More training less recovery!
