A good kind of soreness

There are bad kinds of soreness. Patella-femeral pain, ITB massage, doing up ones fly to quickly - these things are bad pain. This evening I have earned the pain I am feeling, and I like it. Mildly sore shoulders, legs a tiny bit stiff with almost no pain in that wretched left knee.

The day started with a swim squad. 1500m of various tiring drills and kicks passed without incident. I'm still getting rapid improvement in the pool, and I felt strong today.

I managed to sneak 6K on the treadmill (10 kph) just as the cricket started this afternoon. I still feel that my condition isn't what it should be while I'm running, but the run passed with very little knee pain, and that was in the 2090's so that is a great sign. The treadmill in front of the telly has proved a winner thusfar, and will only prove more useful when I get a job.

As a final note to this post I would like to thank everyone who has been leaving comments, it's good to get advice and feedback from a variety of sources.

I promise I am finished with yesterday's bike course when I am alone. I also promise I will take a rest day tomorrow. Thanks for your concern, Luckylegs.
