The Tale of Two Runs
27/9/05
Belinda and I headed out on our 10.5km loop. Her ankle was very sore and this restricted her stride quite a bit. She gritted her teeth for the first 7km until it went numb and that made it easier to run. After the run I thought I managed to convince her to take a break from running until she had no pain in that lower leg region.
29/9/05
After convincing me that the pain had disappeared from her ankle region, Belinda and I again headed out on our 10.5km loop. She was moving a lot easier today but found the horribly humid conditions stifling. Her leg felt fine but she was frustrated by her inability to build speed. I told her just to settle into an easy stride and the pace would return. The result was a 2 minute quicker run than Tuesday. It now looks as though she will be able to run Homebush on Saturday where I will once again be on 55 minute pacing duties. It will be interesting to see how that pans out.

Belinda, I'm really sorry that you weren't able to make it to drinks last week. However I am very glad that your ankle is behaving itself again.
Good luck next weekend Horrie; I now wish I was heading down to cheer. However I will be thinking you on the big day and sending you telepathic cheers!
