Well it hasn't been a case of not wanting to write... or run... but I've been out of action all year. Typical isn't it, all my life I've been *touch wood* injury free (apart from a hernia and shoulder injury) but as soon as I get the opportunity to do something that I've always wanted to do I get a problem... Never mind, think positive thoughts (unlike some of those around me!).
So the story so far... well I went back to my original physio (Bruce) this week as the last one just made matters worse whilst ripping me off. This time Bruce crucified my lower back and attacked my right leg from 2 different angles and it seems to have had a positive effect. Yesterday was pretty much pain free and I'm now feeling like I may try and start running again next week.
Yes I know that I've less than 3 months to go and that I haven't even run over 10 miles yet but I think that as long as I don't suffer any more set-backs then I should be ok. Mr Gamble has also given me some much needed advice (I do listen, honest!) and I'm feeling more positive. Plus I've a get together with the Children with Leukaemia charity at the end of the month and hopefully that'll give me a bit of a boost.
On a different note and whilst thinking about milestones... Gem and I had our 20 week scan yesterday (well I didn't have a scan but you know what I mean) and we found out that we're having another boy. All looks perfect and healthy and by the time of the marathon she'll be nearing full term - exciting times!!
