Pain in the bum

Things were going well in my last blog promising the earth and then my body decides it doesn’t like my plans ……the beginning of the week I started with a niggle in my posterior, derrière, gluteus maximus or possibly minimus or pain in my right ass cheek for those plain English speakers out there!

Before you all shout at your screen, YES I know I am a right pain the in the ass and it is my just deserts, finally, my chickens are coming home to roost, but I can tell you now I DON’T need this😖

I have my first triathlon of the year this weekend, Shropshire Triathlon sprint distance and was really looking forward to it… WELL, that is not really true, what could be said is that I was really reluctant to pull out. This year I have registered for 3 triathlons and DNS  2; the reasons being Lichfield because of injury, Swansea because I was chicken.  So to actually start and finish this one would be progress 😁

In order to get race fit for the weekend, I am off to the sports therapist in a bit and hopefully, he will get me right again, so I can run (gently) tomorrows parkun and get around my Tri on Sunday.

Then I promise to incorporate more (or at the very least some) Strength & Conditioning into my weekly routine from now on in…..
