My first marathon in new year

Just finished a marathon. It was a big chalenge as I stopped training for 3 weeks due to knee pain about 7 weeks before the race and resumed training with adjusted schedule set by my coach in remaining 4 weeks including taper time.

The main issue in the race is increasing hips pain and foot pain after 18 miles although I have no issue with breath and heart rate. The pain forced me to slow down the pace further and further. Good thing was I saw more and more people start walking towards the end while I was still running and run to the end.

I met my coach at endpoint and told her the issue of hips pain. She joked: do you know there is a song “Hips don’t lie”? I laughed: "well, Hips don’t lie, but my knee might lie."

Yes I did not feel knee pain over the course and had no other injury except sore on legs and pain on hips. So nice to make it with a healthy body!

 

【憶秦娥】新年首馬拉鬆

晨寒顫,人群漸聚心如盼。心如盼,星光微隱,嘈聲稍倦。

出征令響人潮漫,新年邁步鞋聲亂。鞋聲亂,前途雖遠,老身仍健。

 

*新年之後首跑馬 七周前由於膝蓋受傷歇了三個星期,隻能降低目標,總算無傷跑完。
