Keep On Running

 I've been tracking my steps automatically and saving to Google Sheets since 26th October 2019, almost a year now. My first recorded run with Maia was 2nd November 2019 when we struggled to complete a few laps of the local, small park.

There was a break in our exercises from December 2019 to March 2020 and since March we've been pretty persistent, running more than twice a week most weeks.

Most mornings now we run 5km and gradually we're getting quicker.

This week I had my first running injury. I've had knee pains but don't really count those as I'm still finding my running style. 

I stepped on a branch which I though just bruised my toe but on later examination it seems that the branch stuck a thorn through my running shoe into my toe.


Took this little splinter/thorn out using magnesium sulphate paste and tweezers. All back to normal now.
