Into Centennial Park and ran and walked around the trail inside the fence. So all on grass and dirt. No tar or concrete. This morning was a case of walk for 3 minutes then run for 2 minutes until I got up to 40 minutes.
My leg didn't hurt when I ran it only hurts now while pressing on the stress fracture spot. So don't get your hopes up that I will be back running normally any time soon.
To me I'm looking at early May which will be 3 months, but there are no guarantees with a stress fracture that it won't need longer to stop being painful. But not hurting when I ran is a start.
Did 5.01ks in the 40 minutes. Not exactly fast as the run was really just a slow jog for me.
It is a great feeling running in the park after a rain. Soft under foot with the smell of the pine needles on the ground and the eucalyptus in the air.

Good news champ !
That is good news 'Flake. Funny how that well you return to running after an injury-break, you notice the small things ;-)
Take it easy
PS Why weren't you at drinks ??
nice start, talk about secret training.
I've volunteered to officiate at Striders next week so we'll see whether I get a start in the race.
Can't I get just a little bit excited for you!
Yeah you!!! I love the park after the rain... I can always smell cinamon... but maby I am just hungry :-)
SF, Looks like you're not rushing into things like I am. Glad someone is listening to paid for advice. Keep it going mate. Brendan
