No running again today, I just did 30 minutes of upper body weight training. I am still in the boot until Wednesday or Thursday and then I will have a week after that to get it off and then test drive my leg and see where I am at... The soft cast is off and now I am just in an ace bandage, it feels pretty good but if I was to run on it I don't know how it would feel, I am just hoping and praying for the best. I am giving myself until the 15th of September to decide whether or not I will be running SGM or not, I have to notify the hotel by this date to get my full refund on the rooms, so that is D-Day so to speak. Tomorrow I plan on doing my upper core training, I know this sounds boring on the strength training but it is the only thing that is keeping me from going crazy!!
See ya tomorrow... | Comments(2) |

| Upper core training this morning on the big rubber ball, 450 crunches and then alternate with push-ups between those, total sit-ups 80... My leg feels alittle better but I can still feel the injury at certain times so I know it is not 100%, maybe more like 65%, so a long way to go. I am hoping that with in the next week I will see a noticable improvement so that maybe I can start running again, atleast in a limited compacity. But we shall see. | Comments(2) |

Still no running yet, but my leg seems to be getting better I had no pain at all yesterday and it seems it could be the same for today. As I got out of bed this morning there was no pain so that is a good sign, but the earliest I would actually try to run would be Monday and that is if I stay pain free until then, I am still in the boot and nothing else... I did 30 minutes of upper body core training, with 300 crunches on the rubber ball and then alternating sets with as many push-ups as I can do between those. I will do some upper body weight training tomorrow on the Bowflex, to round out the week, if I stay pain free through Saturday it will be real hard not to throw on the shoes and give my leg a test run, but I will try to control myself.
See ya tomorrow! | Add Comment |

Still no running today, but I am out of the boot which is good... I did do about 5 minutes on the elliptical gilder just to test my leg out and there was no pain, but then I went out on the grass and ran around on it and there was still some discomfort, it wasn't as bad as it has been but I am still concerned. I will probably give it until next Tuesday or Wednesday to see if it improves, I mean the pain that I was feeling today was nothing like it has been and I think that I could train on it but I want to be very careful at this point and make sure it will hold up...
I also did 30 minutes of upper body weight training and stretching, I felt pretty good about that. | Comments(1) |
