..icing..why you might ask?

..well o friend o mine
..that would not be because i have re-injured my achilles.. it is because i went for a reasonable run today... and wait for it.. this word is rarely used in conjunction with jojo..i am being SENSIBLE... jojo nods her head all smug..yep me and sensible..holding hands
..what has become of erratic, i wonder how she makes it through the day without being run over by a car jo? well its the 6month back injury followed by an achilles strain..hang on..youre right..it can NEVER last..im all tuckered out after being sensible jo for ONE whole day...fruity fruit fruit loops of doop
LOL
ok so the run..i was told by my quasi coach that i could do 15kms this week with my long run of 6-7kms(thats a bit sad isnt it..that6kms is MY LONG run)..well i decided i better do the long run as early as possible just in case i re-injure or get sick or who knows what demons the running gods have in store for this week!
6kms(there is no way achilles would be happy with 7kms..got a little tight at 5.2kms but not sore)
30:40 so average pace of 5:07min/km .noice!i goldilocks'ed it up..not too fast.not too slow
.. and also i was told not to play squash after a long run:(snorts that it is a long run) and since i cant play tomorrow anyway... cos i have after school sports,drinks and then a massage..and then who knows

hope my mara pals are not too sore..

happy little josephine.. hugs and kisses all 'round
ps: and HOW cool is this Calvin and Hobbes quote(very apt for me...)i loooove C&H
i have plenty of common sense...i just choose to ignore it!

Love the C&H quote, BTW buy yourself a proper ice pack, much better than peas!

How frustrating for you. Hope the sensible approach works :D

Well done, keep it up, caution & discipline may mean that a summer season is possible..

Rehad exercises, icing, sensible approach and some anti-inflamms to assist should be a smart approach. I'm sure you can be controlled for a few weeks, build a base and go from there!

Gees I'm a cautious shit head! :-)

Wow JoJo. I am so completely impressed. Way to go woman.

I think sensible you is still going to be a pretty entertaining and interesting person.
