Niggles

Less than three weeks to go to the Cork city marathon. Unfortunately I have a number of niggles, including shinsplints. Last week I managed forty-five miles but I'm not going to make anything like that this week. I am backing off significantly on the mileage and will be happy to get more than thirty. For the two taper weeks I am toying with the idea of doing a tempo run and/or a long run and cross training for the remainder of each week.
Hopefully taking this approach will mean I do not loose any fitness while ensuring complete recovery from injury. Time will tell.
