The Long Silence Broken!

Been here in Sydney for 2 months now, and frankly the running is going shockingly bad - hence the long silence on this blog. I intended to run the Sydney Marathon in September, but that's not going to happen now.

Basically I've struggled with shin splints, so I'm committing myself to doing my exercises every day and do a few little runs as the weeks go by to see how they're going. I must admit I'm a bit gutted about the whole thing. I bought insoles for my trainers too, but I still got pains when I ran. Perhaps I need to get ones made for me?
Anyway, I'm still a runner, although it is so frustrating to be living on Manly Beach and not be able to enjoy it properly!
