| Probably should not have run ... but did (and am good with the decision). :) Pain level was about what I had expected during the race (but far worse than I expected the following several days). Did better than I thought I would have the first half and worse than I thought I would have the second half. My body was just not ready for the miles. Luckily Ashton and Jake ran the final 6.2 with me or I might have walked the whole thing. :) LOVED being there though as both Annie (my SIL) and Fonz had FANTASTIC races!!! Annie PR'd by roughly 15 minutes and Fonz ran his FIRST marathon in 2:48:xx!!!!!! And get this, his longest training run was a 16 miler. DANG THAT BOY IS FAST!!!! He says he is not going to do it again ... I am going to try and convince him otherwise. :) :) :) It was fun seeing everyone! I am super ready to give my body a short break from running now. I have been feeling quite worn down these past couple of months and am looking forward to regrouping. :) |

| 4 miles So ... long story sorta short: SGM: I had a really good first half (much better than I expected) and then around the halfway mark the pain in my left leg began to intensify significantly. I had been dealing with pain there for quite some time and had just figured that the meds had worn off and that I was running harder than normally. After that, the rest of the marathon pretty much stunk! I took a week off, and then began adding short runs in. I was happy because I was running all of them without any meds and the pain seemed to be lessening. My only concern was what I thought was a ganglion cyst that I thought needed to be drained. Today I went to see the doctor to see if he could drain it. He had me run 4 miles to see if we could aggravate the cyst enough to really make it stand out so that when he poked it he could be spot on. I ran, the cyst acted up, but as the doctor was palpating the area he pushed on a spot on my tibia that put me through the roof! He put the needle down and said we needed to do a set of x-rays. Result: stress fracture. :( :( :( Positive side: it isn't that big and unlike many tibial stress fractures it is not horizontal, but mostly vertical (which is good since fractures that stay out in the cortex area and don't penetrate the core of the bone heal much quicker). It looks almost like when you shred a small portion of the outside of a twig a bit. Know what I mean? Sigh. It is already in the healing process and if I am a good girl it should hypothetically heal somewhere between 2-4 weeks from now. Anyway, enough said. Peace! :) |

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. :) :) :)

Friday mornings I don't have class and usually don't have to be to the clinic until noon. AND ... Rylee doesn't have school until a little before 10 a.m. SO ... we get a nice little workout and then get to go to breakfast together. IT IS ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!!!! :) :) :) | Comments(1) |

upright bike: 30k/18.6 miles - 1:00:38 (random/3) elliptical: 7.4k/4.65 miles - 37:57 (random/1) swim: 1125 m/.7 m - 24:30 (I realize those are some pretty weird distances ... but they were intentional: 3/4th the distance of an olympic tri - substituting the running miles for elliptical miles.) ** The great thing about being injured is having time to do all the other sports that I love, esp. swimming. I love how it shocks my body a bit and I feel more in shape overall. Don't get me wrong, I love and miss running ... but I love this as well. If I weren't so afraid of being hit by a car and being permanently injured I think I would love to get into triathlons. BUT ... after volunteering at a clinic that specializes in spinal injuries I don't seem to be able to get past that fear. :(
