Ouch!

Mmmm, not good news. Thought the back pains I had last week after running had subsided. I managed 80 on the bike 2 days later!. However on Friday I started delivering directories and only managed a couple of hours before having to stop. Rested Saturday (still hurting quite a bit) but had to carry on with deliveries on Sunday. Needless to say, the pains have been getting worse each day. Fortunately finished all deliveries on Weds night.
I now rattle thanks to the amount of ibuprofen & paracetomol tablets I’m guzzling, have spent the last two nights trying to sleep propped up on the sofa and haven’t been on the bike for a week. Hopefully the pains will subside a bit over the weekend and I can try a gentle ride on Monday?
Only 5 weeks to go now. Hope its not going to be 3 men , 2 bikes and 1 car!
