Humid day all day today and thundery this afternoon. About 5 pm the heavy rain had subsided and so decided to head out for an hours run at a relaxed pace. Well that was the intent but as per usual during the run I went with the "how I feel approach" and just upped the ante a little bit. My back is still aching a little, well a lot, it's more noticeable when I'm sitting. Stu Mac thanks for your advice and I'll give it a go, basically more stretching and in a particular order. Lucky Legs thanks for dropping by and I'll certainly scream about it when I can touch my toes (with straight legs that is). Stats as of 28 Jan 2006

Stretching the legs hammy's etc like Stu Mac said is very important for the lower back. When you run the rotation of the torso gives the Abs a decent workout. You are also doing a few situps in addition. The opposing muscle groups to the abs are obviously you back muscles. If your train a muscle group you should make every effort to train the opposing group to keep a balance. However I wouldn't do anything with the back until the niggle goes, and would personally hold off on the sit ups aswell.

How are your shoes?, maybe your back is a sore from some impact or a slight hole you have stepped into on a run.
