    I did something stupid this week. All gung ho was I at the thought of doing 10k's and planning trail runs, and trying to work or how NOT to get blisters on my instep, I took my minimalist shoes out for a run for the first time for ages.

    Did I take it slowly?, did I build up? No. Just went full into my usual run, because, hell, I often have bare feet, and since it wasn't hurting my feet to run, what harm could it do? IGNORED the aching in my calves after the first mile, HOBBLED by the third but carried on running.

    So five days later, I'm still using the hand rail to help me walk downstairs, still tense in the calf muscles, struggling to stand on the balls of my feet. What am I? An idiot.

    Two weeks until the 10k race I'm not trained for.......

    Distances include cycling + walking
    March: 489.8 km (304.3 miles) = 38 hours 4 min
    April: 491.94 km (305.6 miles) = 43 hours 6 min
    May: 361.81 km (224.8 miles) = 35 hours 50 min
    June: 569.53 km (353.9 miles) = 41 hours 53 min
    July: 230.7 km (143.35 miles) = 32 hours 45 min
    Aug: 211.3 km (131.3 miles) = 28 hours 8 min
    Sep: 306.7 km (190.6 miles) = 35 hour 2 min
    Oct: 441.82 km (274.5 miles) = 47 hours 43 min
    Nov: 660.21 km (410.23 miles) = 60 hours 41 min
    Dec: 499.91 km (282.8 miles) = 54 hours 56 min
    Jan: 864.79 km (537.35 miles) = 65 hours 36 min
    Feb: 470.53 km (292.4 miles) = 40 hours 39 min
    March: 917.73 km (570.2 miles) = 66 hours 13 min

    April probably won't be as ambitious as March was because I have three major uni assignments due before the middle of the month and won't be as active. But if I could do what I did last April, that would be nice. :)

    I'm a bit behind where I wanted to be ... behind last April ... but this month has been hectic! I've hardly had a second to think let alone cycle or walk. Plus, my husband had an accident at work and cracked his ribs, so he hasn't been able to get out as much either.
