If the C word is on your mind and you are out of ideas, perhaps a voucher for physiotherapy or sports massage could be just the ticket. 🌲

The nights are shorter the trails and mucky. Maybe its time to wrap that precious bike up for winter or maybe life is busy and running is just a more time efficient way to blow away the cobwebs at the end of a hard day.
One way or other its sensible to hit the trails, tarmac or treadmill with a bit of caution. Bikers often have good cardiovasular levels of fitness so their breathing doesn't limit their running. Running doesn't feel too hard so they just go for it without giving their body time to adapt.
Running unlike biking is a high impact sport requiring the body to absorb 3-5x body weight on each foot strike.
The human body is incredibly adaptable, it just needs time make those adaptions. To let your body adapt from biking to running its sensible to start with shorter runs concentrating on duration rather than pace and keep increase in mileage to around the 10% week mark.
If you've overcooked it and need some help or want some advice on how to transition from a low impact sport to a high impact sport just get in touch.
