That last two days have been rough. It's not normal having to pick your thigh up just to move it, or ask for some help to sit down to pee, or hold onto the walls when your quads buckle out of nowhere. LOL! I went on a walk around the block last night to try and help move some of the lactic build up through. It must have helped a little since I was able to hobble into the gym this morning. I got to the gym around 5:15 and worked on the eliptical for and hour and 30 minutes. There's a man there named Scott who I am friends with. He noticed me walking funny. He said: "are you hurt"? I just laughed and told him I'd tell him next time we ran by each other. After all, it was kind of crazy of me wasn't it? -running down a steep rocky trail at full speed. It didn't hurt at the time but this after pain is rough stuff. Still, it was a good experience and I had fun.
But I'd give anything to feel normal again.
Oh have to mention, I swear my quads doubled in muscle size. Think I like my distant runners tone better then this super rock hard look. Just my preference anyways.
