ups and downs...

Yesterday, I got a massage. The guy used to work with Bodybuilders. He really worked my muscles and it hurt a lot. His comment was: "Your legs are as thick as the arms of a Bodybuilder. Their legs are double the size. This is why I am used to work the muscles hard!" Well, it helped at least. I could run 18km the same day in the evening! Still some sensation in the right leg but I feel much better now.

Glad to hear you are running.
Someone once told me that you should not run straight after a massage(ie the same day). Not sure if this is the current thinking????
Good luck.
See you in Japan.

He recommended running after the massage and the run was pretty good. On Saturday, I could add another 35k. Things are looking better now.
