AM: easy 30 min on the tm
noon: Follow up with orthopaedic specialist to get MRI results: there is no stress fracture, which is great. The only abnormality showing from the MRI is some liquid around my tendon. I will quote the MRI report: "The anterior tibial tendon, the most medial and the largest to the anterior tendons, is normal in size and signal intensity. It is adjacent to the marker. A rim of fluid is noted surrounding the tendon suggestive of tenosynovitis." That's the deal. The doctor said I could do a hard workout on it, with less than full quantity, but then said it would be better to wait a day or two more for hard running, since the risks of it flaring up again is greater than the benefit of the workout this close to the race. So I stuck to the elliptical,
PM: way PM. This workout started at 7:45, way too late, but had to do it then, so that's that. 20 min wu cd, then did 2 x18 min hard, 160 heart rate ave for the first 18 minutes, then 163 ave heartrate for the second 18, with 10 min rest between the two. I plan on easy run tomorrow. |
