Well, an update is in order I feel. My foot has been sore for days. It doesn't stop me walking on it, but it is sore with trainers on and not good for running at all. In fact, I can't run right now.
I don't know whether my wee toe is fractured or just badly bruised, but on the plus side it has been better today and hopefully is just getting better. I will swim tomorrow morning and haven't run on it at all, so should be ok for my long run on Friday.
I am kind of nervous about this run...I'm aiming for 30-35 miles and it'll be the longest I've been on my feet for one stretch (without a bike!). Luckily my friend has agreed to meet me at the end and run/hike the last bit with me which is great of him! I also got my innov8 pro running bumbag today which looks awesome! I just hope it doesn't bounce around too much...guess whatever it does it will be a big improvement from me stuffing my juice into the waistband of my running shorts (:
So a relaxing week this week with the injury, but have done one good hard cross-training sesh.
Monday 12/7
Type: Cross trainer + row
Time: 40mins + 15mins
Distance: 6k + ?
Did 5 min fast warm up then increase in resistance and incline until really really tough...then back down to the fast 5 min again. Called the "Gluteal" work out =O 15mins tough row too.
Sunday 11/7
Type: Cycle
Time: 1h 30mins (including stop to eat lunch)
Distance: 12.6miles
A nice easy cylce with Derek to keep my legs loose. Cycled up to a nice viewpoint and ate a sandwich but it started to get really windy so we headed back.

Hope your toe is okay on the run.
Re your bumbag ... make sure all the straps are nice and tight. There's nothing worse than a bumbag that bounces around on your waist!
