Too Much Too Soon
We have all done it....wanting to get our value for money and taste every dish on the all-inclusive holiday menu.
You arrive at the hotel dining room for breakfast and make sure you indulge in the continental breakfast, the full fry-up and don't forget the extra pastries.
The same is repeated at lunch and dinner with 4 courses and not to mentions the cocktails.
Now your sitting there wondering weather its safe to move as you feel woozy from the indulgent feast.
It's only the first day of the holidays and you have already over done it!
This is very like the situation runners find themselves in when they get tendon pain of the achilles or knee.
They may have just gotten over an injury or registered for a marthon.
They feel fresh and motivated to hit their high expectations and start training harder and longer to get fitter "quicker".
The number one reason for getting tendon pain is by going beyond your capacity and loading them too much, too fast, too far, too intense and too soon.
This causes your tendon to get irritated and painful and sets you back with your training.
You have over done it with your training load!
If you are struggling with tendon pain due to running and need help in getting out of pain DM me to book a Running Assessment.
