So apart of walking the Great Wall of China is to get used to stairs. Apparently there are lots and lots of them!
My training this week has consisted of walking up the stair wells in my work place. Yesterday I went up 7 flights of stairs and then down again. After the walk, my legs felt a little jelly but I was able to get on with me day. Could someone have warned me however that I would feel pain for two days after...... oh my gosh, the pain!
So constructive words of advice from my work colleagues included 'try stretching more before you do it', 'Radox baths at the end of each day', 'try skipping steps to make the stride further apart'........
Ok, so I am not intentionally having a whinge, but damn I hurt!!!!! I will continue doing the steps because if I hurt now in the comfort of my own home, it will much worse in a different country with the knowledge that you are hitting the steps again the next day for 5 hours.
