Sunday
Got really late - 5:30pm before I managed to get out - but finally managed the 17.5km loop.Had to stop as usual to massage toes due to pain and so it took 1:32.Weather was really bad - rained - cold rain all day - wore lightweight jacket.

Saturday
I was pleased to finally get out today as I'd settled watching the snooker and didn't feel like it at all.In the end I managed to equal yesterdays 58 mins for the 12.7km loop - which was quite pleasing.

Friday
With perfect weather - after a few days of rain - went surprisingly well and was pleased to finish in 58 mins.Only problem was toe on right foot as always still gets very painful after 40 mins.

Wednesday & Thursday
Wed - 12.7km - wheels again fell off and ongoing foot problems add to the slowness - Plantar? strained at front instep,(behind big toe).Took a very slow 1:03
Thursday - same 12.7km - worked hard but struggled again all round - both feet and breathing for 1:01.

Tuesday 12.7km
Was surprised when I'd finished that the clock was telling me that I'd only taken 59 mins - as it never felt fast and wheels well and truly fell off just before half way.Also I'd not noticed a large instep blister from yesterday - but decided to run anyway.Had problems with right foot again even sock/blister etc so wasn't as yesterday enjoyable.

Saturday - Sunday - Monday
Saturday - injured - knees and right foot.
Sunday - went really slowly with sore knees and foot seemingly losing it's structural integrity - connected to Plantar Fasciia and also long standing injury where Achilles joins to heel bone.
Ended up taking a very slow 1:07 for the 12.5km
Monday - set off a bit faster and even though outside of knee was still sore - quite enjoyed the run - and relieved to finish the same 12.5km in 1:01.

Friday 12.5km
Bit of a disaster day - had a problem with right foot/leg but carried on regardless as I was timing it.Finished ragged and injured in 62 mins - later a lot of swelling in knees - may have to take a rest day.

Thursday - 12.5km loop
Managed to get under the hour - 59 mins - but it was a struggle the entire run.I tend to get to about 3km and run out of steam - a definite sign of being unfit....

Tuesday & Wednesdays
Tuesday - tried 12.7km loop - wheels fell off a bit and it took 1:01:30 so quite slow,
Wednesday - thought I'd try longer 17.5 km but take it slow from the off.I was slow...and had to stop 2/3rds of the way to massage sore toe - eventually taking 91mins - so 2 quite slow days - but just happy to be able to run at all for now.

Saturday & Sunday
Saturday was usual 12km loop in 59 mins - a bit slower again.
Sunday - tried a longer run 17.79km
had to stop twice to remove right shoe and massage toes/foot - then return was into a quite strong headwind so not surprising it took almost 1.5 hours.

Thursday
After a 65 day complete break - started back about a week and a half or so ago.Started with a few days jog/walk but soon got up to a constant jog.Heel is finally showing signs of recovering after the lay off of both running and stretching.
Worked up to a loop of 12.58km
Which I've done 4 times now - progressively taking the time down from 1hr 1min,1hr 0 min,
59min - then after an easy recovery day yesterday - 57 mins today.
