Probably wise, your recovery will be faster for it.

Did somebody hit you on the head? You've been making a lot of sensible decisions lately?

I've pulled out of pacing DCM, was really looking forward to it but I'm going to build myself back up slowly without the pressure of having to do it in a short time frame.:o

Aw thats a pity!

Sorry to hear but I'd say in the long run (pun intended ) you'll be back to yourself much quicker as a result.

It's just 4 hrs of pain, you're missing nothing trust me.

I was wondering when you were gonna pull out of that, lunacy imo.

Especially when you drink 7 pints the night before and wake up with a scar on your face

Damn it, I knew I should have taken the 4/6 Brian had on offer for this

Sorry to hear that Dude but it would appear to be the smart call.

5 miles in the park with Jcsmum and Chinguetti, had to bail on the run as the hr was sky high for almost recovery pace.:o

Yep, gonna take a break from running for a month or so, at least anyting above 3/4 miles and let the strength rebuild.

Wow, a major break :eek:
Going to try running these shorter distances more often?

Ha bleedin Ha, I'm talking about running less than 10 miles a week. :cool:

I'm getting better but every 10 mile run I do makes me feel sick for a few days because my body can't cleanse all the poison out and deal with training at the same time. Since I was forced to cut my mileage right back I've put on a stone :eek:, need some calorie burning (outside of the bedroom - Had to get that in before that mucky minded Jcsmum brings the tone down)

Same for me at the moment. I was 170 HR at 10 min miling the other day :eek: Nearly 6 months in and still as bad as ever.

Probably should have said this to you before, apologies if its too late;

if you wanna run, keep the HR <150 (or what ever is normal recovery HR), anything higher will just set back your recovery completely and knock you back down again. Even if you have to walk to maintain this HR, you do it. Low HR exercise will do you good. Heard that info from a specialist.

Thanks, low effort exercise helps the lymphatic system to drain toxins.

Have you got a diagnosis yet?

Good luck with the recovery C. Wise to take a step back and get it sorted 100%
