Last night before I went to bed I experienced a severe muscle spasm in my neck and as I slept it got super tight and painful I could barely roll out of bed this morning. It hurt to move it in any direction. I hate it when this happens!!! Seems like it happens to me about every 6 weeks too. Usually I just grit my teeth and go running anyway, but I didn't have the gumption today. So I went for an easy 7 mile bike ride with my 4 yo in the toddler seat. Then, later in the afternoon I went to the gym and lifted weights and did core work for an hour. I went in to see my ART guy and he worked on it quite a bit but these spasms generally take a few days and sometimes a week really relax all the way. Ugh. I also got some ART done on my ever niggly achilles and my right shin that keeps getting waves of tightness every few days. I felt pretty beat up when I left but hopeful for recovery. |
