No Running for a Week

Did not do any training today. Resting my sore legs. Based on the research I have done on the internet using reputable sources, it souds like I am suffering from a typical runner injury known as posterior shin splints.

The good news is that many runners suffer from this as they begin to train. The bad news is that the only remedy is to NOT RUN! So, I will take the next week off from running in order to be able to run my 5k race on Saturday.

I will try to replace my training with swimming, since I was toying with the idea of a sprint triathalon in June anyways. I am not a good swimmer, and I could use the practice anyway.

Hoping to ride tomorrow still.
