I'm having a few probs adapting to road-running at the mo and it sounds like you've done a bit of running before so I just wondered if you had any tips at all...in particular my thighs are like bags of sand after an 18k road run the other day...is there anything pre- or post-run I could be doing to avoid this? Sorry to bombard you...feel free to check out my blog to compare training programmes...they're very different!<BR/><BR/>Best of luck with yours...<BR/><BR/>Regards,<BR/><BR/>Fin Hi,

I failed to get into the London Marathon and opted to go for the Paris one instead (April 9th). I’m having a few probs adapting to road-running at the mo and it sounds like you’ve done a bit of running before so I just wondered if you had any tips at all…in particular my thighs are like bags of sand after an 18k road run the other day…is there anything pre- or post-run I could be doing to avoid this? Sorry to bombard you…feel free to check out my blog to compare training programmes…they’re very different!

Best of luck with yours…

Yowza!! Doesn't sound like a race I'll be doing anytime soon (this coming from the girl who's team captain for the Hustle Up the Hancock -- 94 flights of stairs).<BR/><BR/>I'm impressed with how well you're doing. I know which races I'm going to do, but have yet to sign up for them. Kudos for sticking to your schedule! That's some mad discipline you've got.<BR/><BR/>-B. Lung Busting Hills?!? Yowza!!
