I spoke too soon. On Friday, I sprinted the last 100 meters to race my friend Irving, and I don't think that was a good idea. My left heel hurt a lot Friday evening, and yesterday. I iced it and it helped, but didn't go away completely. I think I got a bruised heel, which shouldn't be too hard to heal. But I wanted to go for a run today, and I didn't feel well at all. My left heel hurt, so I put more weight on the right leg, which caused my right tendon and shins to hurt. So I went really really slow and in a very bad mood. The last mile I started noticing the gorgeous flowers around, the Dogwoods are flowering, the Azaleas are starting to show, very pretty, so I felt better. Icing now. Congrats to all of you that raced this weekend, very exciting to read the race reports! |
