Ok, I have time to post my run. A VERY EXCITING 10 mile run to start out the week. Ok, it wasn't exciting at all but at least I was able to average under 8 minute pace. Listened to some NPR and switched to music when I couldn't take it any more. Can't wait for Nov. 4th so we can all move on. ave pace 7:53 weight 123
I went to Dr. Brady's. He has us note our top three injuries/sore spots. Here's mine in order: Right ham: been sore for about 9 weeks, but slowly getting better. Left ham: has been acting up since the marathon but this was the first time he worked on it, says its way tight. I feel it toward the end of long runs and when I stretch. Right foot: Pain at the very top of the ball of my foot, where my toes meet up with the ball. This has hurt since marathon race day, but it is just mildly sore and getting slowly better. This is also the first time he worked on this (prior two visits after the marathon were focused on my right ham and both calves since they were tight/sore from the race). I bought a foam roller, about 8" in diameter, which I am to roll on, and I am to heat my hams and my foot, and massage my foot and return and report in two weeks. Good times. I am grateful I have the time and funds to see a doctor, it really helps me keep my body going with my mileage.
