Struggle to work

Bit of a struggle this morning.  I still have the sore throat.  It was a hot and humid night.  The achillies and ankle has also been playing up.

I pack my stuff up and head for Lewisham.  The initial run up my road is incredibly hard.  I start to feel better as I skip through the woods of Beckenham Place Park.  By the time I reach Lewisham high street I am relaxed and enjoying the run.  The programme of sit-ups I have been doing seem to be starting to pay dividends in terms of my form.

Eventually I make the DLR station but am pretty hot and sweaty.   I look forward to the shower at work.  But first I have to deal with the DLR delays caused by a broken set of points and broken down train.  I start to think I should have ran the whole way.

Glad I made the effort to run.  It feels like the run has helped with the ankle and achillies.  It would be interesting to know if it is running or cycling related.
