| | Set out to run 13 with Lyndsi and @ 5.5 I had to stop and stretch out a tight knee....ran another mile, had to stop and stretch again...then half a mile, dang IT Band....I think being held up all week ill has me pretty tight. Ended up running home to finish with 8 miles @ 8:40 average pace. Lyndsi was going to run home and have Todd bring her back to her car. Very grateful for her company and support this morning!! |

| | so my shin is still bothering me. ran first mile with discomfort, then I got off, went to the rest room, tried to stretch then only made it another half before I didn't want to push into too much pain. Went to Tami's YOGA class - so wonderful! Think I'll take a few days off, really let it rest up. I have been doing epsome salt, rolling w/golf ball on the bottom of my foot and ice (w/cream later.) wore my compression socks to school today, felt like that helped. |

| | Went to see Doctor Sarah Valac April 18 (Thur.) Had taken the morning off to ice and prop my leg. Went in at noon she wanted an MRI - really, it seems more like tendonitis - she then sent me to see PT Stephani Liddel. I ended up w/her associate who did the fork tuner test on my bone. I felt no pain and then we worked through a series of exercises scrape/rub down of lower leg to end w/ ice and electric current waves into my leg. I have been three times now (that day and Mon/Wed of this week. After texting w/Sarah last night, we agreed that I could walk a mile today on TM to see how it is feeling.. I felt my lower left shin the first quarter mile then the next quarter mile it began to pull and became very uncomfortable. I stopped, stretched. Did tricep dips, pushups, crunches lots of yoga stretches. I also ended with hopping on my left leg just to see if it wold hurt. It did NOT hurt at all, so that is a good sign. While I sit here, it does not hurt, so I will slowly get back there! | | Add Comment |
