I feel like the pain in my leg is starting to feel better. I haven't actually ran yet but I feel like I am making some progress since the pain associated with other forms of cardio is minimal. On Friday, I did 30 minutes of the elliptical and did a speed walk/jog on the treadmill for a mile. There was no pain but lots of fear in my mind so I didn't dare push it! I had no pain the following day so I will attempt the same today at the gym and maybe try an extra half mile on the treadmill.
On another note, I am thrilled to tell you that I have two weeks until I complete the final course of the MPA program! I will have a Master's degree!! Yippee!! I wasn't going to participate in the commencement in June but everyone thinks that I should so maybe I will. The next two weeks will be very intense as I have lots of reading and studying to do! I am nervous about the whole thing but I have to do it! It kind of keeps my mind off of running too which is a good thing right now.
Without running in my life, things are really different. Everyone's schedule is usually based around my training and my race schedule but not anymore. I am hoping that this will soon change. I miss running so much and I can't wait to get back out there!! I am probably going to be overly cautious at first but eventually those fears will go away and life will be back to "normal" again.
Have a great Sunday! I will be spending most of my day reading!
What are your Sunday plans? What is your favorite drink from Starbucks? Are you a Starbucks addict like me?
Oh I love Starbucks...I am not very original though...tall or grande latte for me..and hot always...I dont like the cold coffee drinks.
ReplyDelete7 crappy hot miles this morning...went out too late..my son decided to have a temper tantrum right before I was headed out! boooo!
Glad to hear you are on the mend. It can be a little scary coming back from an injury, there is that fear of reinjury all the time. Be patient, you will be back before you know it!
ReplyDeleteso happy you're starting to heal and feel better. I know how you feel as I'm in the same boat.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your Starbuck's and good luck with the reading!
ReplyDeleteWoohoo congrats on almost having your masters, you should be SO SO proud of yourself, managing that while managing a family, life, running and everything else :)
ReplyDeleteHi! Just found your blog through Meaghan's. I'm on the Boston quest too. It's nice to find some others on that striving path. Fingers crossed that your leg is on the mend!
