I too am doing the non-runner's marathon guide plan (although I'm only on Day 5). Sounds like we have a lot of similar issues and goals in terms of running, but you've got a few more months of running on me -- I took all this up in January. <br /><br />On your calf/shin pain, is it on the inside or the outside of your leg? If it is on the outside (particularly for your shin) -- sounds silly, but are you maybe tying that shoe too tightly? I did that (for both shoes) a few months ago and was hit with horrible, crippling cramps on the *outside* of my shin. Once I figured out what was causing it (at first, thought it was a bizarre shin splint thing), and the pain went away, I did a couple of easy walks with somewhat loose laces and then on my next run I didn't have that problem anymore. I still have to watch how tightly I tie one shoe or the other; they seem to be different girths or something. <br /><br />Anyhow, sounds silly but maybe it will help!<br /><br />Cheers,<br />The CilleyGirlThe CilleyGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06655326831902251300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3714803799410649749.post-82939647836118055822009-09-02T13:43:45.898-04:002009-09-02T13:43:45.898-04:00Good for you getting the road id!!!
As for aches ...Good for you getting the road id!!!<br /><br />As for aches and pains you might want to just start icing the area after the run to help prevent injury. I have this whole prevention routine I go through after each run whether it hurts or not and so far hasn't let me down.Jen Feenyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12857381064146340597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3714803799410649749.post-5161965691961865422009-09-02T10:21:45.351-04:002009-09-02T10:21:45.351-04:00I would say that aches and pains are normal, but I...I would say that aches and pains are normal, but I have read many runners training who have been sidelined with REAL injuries such as stress fractures and the like. Make sure that you are stretching and icing the sore spots, that should help.<br /><br />I HATE it when my Garmin stops, the fun part is plugging in after a good run..Mel -Tall Mom on the Runhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03777751504773574393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3714803799410649749.post-79720416485618582672009-09-02T10:07:35.854-04:002009-09-02T10:07:35.854-04:00I've mean meaning to order RoadID's for my...I've mean meaning to order RoadID's for my hubby and I. I just used your code - thanks!!<br /><br />Awesome 8-miler. I think those aches and pains are mostly normal. I take a hot epsom soak almost every night and it seems to help.Marlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08230997094889375925noreply@blogger.com
