2000 meter swim
First 1600 m in just under 35 minutes. Then an additional 400 meters with several laps of pushing it hard. Felt good.
I feel like the stress fracture is healing. At least that is what I keep telling myself. :) :) :)

Thanks Allie!!! :)
I keep thinking, "super bone, super bone, super bone." :) :) :)
The tenderness upon palpation is decreasing a ton, and I am getting close to being pain-free when walking. :)
I am babying it like a crazy woman: trying to get more sleep, eating really healthy, adding more calcium in my diet, trying to bring blood to the area with heat several times a day, wearing a compression sleeve most hours, avoiding impact when possible, etc. :) :) :)

Allie~
I hope you are right!!! :) A couple of people I know have been telling me that it is going to take months to heal and that I should not get my hopes up. However, my gut tells me otherwise. I could be wrong, but I am convinced that the positive energy cannot hurt. :)
SSF~
Thanks!!! :) I love you too AND AM SUPER PROUD of your 50 miler!!!! :) :) :)
