So much for trying to lose some weight. Tuesday I ate Texas BBQ, Wednesday I had steak and again last night we went out with some friends to a steak restaurant and I had steak again! I'm a pig....don't know what I'm thinking.
6 mile on the Gym TM with a few upper body weights to warm up. All miles were 10 min. pace except the last was ramped up each mile to a final quarter mile at 7:30 pace.
Went to the doctor yesterday. He said my toe/foot was doing as good as to be expected. He said it was about 60% and would take another 3-4 months to be 90% and a year to be 100%. The cable and reconstruction has caused my toe to be permanently stiff but he says that is a good thing. Slowly the scar tissue will break down and the soreness on the bottom of my foot will go away. He says I need to run in stiff sole shoes so they only bend at the toe and not in the middle of the shoe (any recommendations?). So...the truth is it may be a while before I'm back to where I want to be.
