Being a bit more sensible
The weekend before last I went to nomads indoor training and rather overdid with the result that i was pretty much crippled for two days afterwards. This Sunday I paced myself better. Even during the warm up I was feeling tight through the groin area and so stopped and took some time out to thoroughly stretch the tight area. I probably did about half the session, avoiding anything that even sniffed of contact. It wasn't too bad. After I got home and got cleaned up etc I spent a lot of time stretching (while watching Act 3 of Britten's A Midsummer Night's Dream). It seems to have worked. I exercised for half an hour this morning without ill effects. I'll be a lot happier though when I get outside on a consistent basis. A weekend of snow followed by -15 windchill doesn't make for great running conditions.
