Half Marathon Training #8

It’s been 10 days since I went out for a run. I thought I was getting shin splints so I got new shoes and took a break from running (although a 30 km hike up and down hills last Monday probably does not constitute as a break). I went out again for the first time and ran 6.2 km at a pretty decent time (for me, that is; it’s all relative, of course). The enw shoes were fine and I think it wasn’t shin splints that were bothering me but a bruise on my shin. Time will tell. Perhaps tomorrow or Tuesday I will squeeze a long run in.
