[EP221] - Finished my challenge... yikes.

in #dtube • 5 years ago

Hi everyone!

Hope you're all well!
Welcome to my video made exclusively for D.Tube.

I finished my 100km challenge in August... I ran about 4kms most days in August on a super hilly route to get to a total of 100km for the month... and it sucked.

The last week was super hard... I started to get shin splints and plantar fasciitis and just couldn't seem to recover enough to finish. I forced myself to finished the challenge, but the last two runs were just a disaster.

Don't run every day, it's a terrible way to go about things.
You really need a couple of days to recover. I was trying to work on my conditioning, but I think I really achieved the opposite.

I'm now working way more on gym work to build my strength and flexibility.

Thanks for watching!

    It really is. I knew what I was attempting was hazardous, especially to me, but I was super curious to see how I'd go for exactly that reason. I'm glad I attempted to run pretty much every day, but now I also know to not try that again either.

    It's all about balance! Sometimes I like to remind myself of that by doing the exact wrong things...

      Yep, make sure you take care of yourself bro. Its funny that everything is connected...Tightness in your calves will cause your foot pain. A great accomplishment either way.

      Thanks Vince! Yeah, my calves have always been super tight, it's one of those spots I can't seem to ever really get under control... I stretch them every day, but I am constantly forgetting to use the foam roller on them.

        Hahaha, thank you! 200KM?!? Kill me now!
        The Nike Run Club app has a leaderboard for the various challenge. I finished around 40,000 out of 110,000 challengers. The front runners were easily clearing 1000KM in the month. Crazy kids.
