Am studying abroad in London at the moment, and the 'new surroundings' effect has certainly helped with my running. Didn't care much for long distances previously, but since the footy season has been over, I've found myself regularly running over 10km a couple of times per week. My PB's have shot through the roof as well, I ran a half marathon the other day in 1:35 (about 4.30 per km). Considering that the two I had previously done this year hadn't reached below 1:48, this was completely out of the blue for me.
I've had a real focus on leg strength and power in the gym since I got here in September, so I'm wondering how much of a factor that is. I generally struggled to improve my PB's over the last couple of years, so these improvements are a surprise. Either that or I clearly prefer running along the Thames than the Maribyrnong.
I have just signed up for my first Marathon on the Great Ocean Road in May.
I did the HM down there a few years ago.
Super pumped! Wish me luck!
Hey, I’m intending to run the capital city trail in Melbourne.
Is it well sign posted? Or should I take a map? Any pros and cons to which direction I take?
Any advice appreciated!
first run for the year is in the books. it gives me a weekly total of 36k (4 runs, long of 10)...my biggest week since May 2020.
no goals or race plans, just happy to be mostly healthy and not completely unfit.
happy trails for 2023
I reckon you should ask a physio first, good luckHaven't been able to run properly since the MS Walk/Run at Flemington back in late August.
I had a terrible run that day but I put it down to wearing a brand new pair of Adios Pro 2 that I hadn't worn prior.
A week later, just a casual training run in Albert Park along Beaconsfield Parade turned into excruciating pain in my left knee that swelled up like a grapefruit the next day. Rest, Ice, etc etc and I'm lining up for the MM 1/2 marathon heavily strapped. After 2k's I was in trouble and pulling 7min per k instead of 5min like I should've. Made it to 10k then pulled out and did the walk of shame back to the runner's village.
Anyway, long story short, thought a few solid weeks rest would help but every effort at a light run resulted in pain within the first klm.
Bought expensive Bauerfiend knee braces which helped by about 10% but still couldn't avoid pain.
Bit the bullet, went to the Doc and a subsequent MRI showed a 10mm tear in my left medial meniscus.
Enter Doctor Google and hundreds of hours of viewing YouTube videos on meniscus injuries, strapping, recovery etc.
I've added that many supplements to my shakes now in a desperate attempt to find a magic bullet.
Anyway, my attempt at a casual 5k run yesterday ended in more pain, (despite the guaranteed strapping method i applied courtesy of Sportside Medical Services on YouTube).
I had an epiphany as I was limping back to my car, I need to just stop running, work on strengthening the surrounding muscles, pivot my training towards cycling and weight training and complete any PT to attempt to get back to race running by around May/June.
This was a bitter pill to take as running for me, like a lot of us I'd imagine, provides great mental health benefits for me but now I almost feel like I'm not part of the community anymore and I'm not a runner. I love calling myself a runner because it's something that's not particularly easy but something I love doing.
So, I have 2 pairs of Puma Deviate Elite and a pair of Adizero Prime X ($210 on UpThere Athletic's website last week) that haven't been used just waiting for my beaten up old legs to take them for a spin
My question, after getting all of that off my chest, is have any of you had a meniscus issue that's keep you off your feet for a while and what treatment did you do and have you gotten back to full strength?
Thanks for listening
Edit: here's the Prime X link if you've got leftover Xmas cash adizero Prime X - Linen Green/Core Black/Beam Yellow
I swear I had a meniscus issue when I played footy 15/16 years ago... A few from meo, but they were small tears where it was catching.. I could get moving in a straight line but couldn't turn at all. For what that was I had multiple physio appointments where they treated it with untrasound, basically the way it was explained was its a really slow healing area because not much blood flow, the ultrasound heat draws blood to the area or some and gets it healing (I'm probably remembering it completely wrong) but basically go see a physio is best. Hopefully it's a quick fix when you get it actually sorted and you don't need a clean out via an arthroscope.Haven't been able to run properly since the MS Walk/Run at Flemington back in late August.
