Day 121
John gets to count the 5 hours of waxing the boat as his workout. I got in 5 hours of running. The kids did some trampoline time across the street 30 min. Hannah also helped daddy wash the car.
Day 122
We spent time in the backyard weeding, planting and repotting plants. Hannah's sunflower from Pioneer Club broke into 3 pieces and she was absolutely crushed since her teacher had requested a picture of her standing by her grown sunflower next fall. I suggested to Hannah that we do a "science experiement" and see if it is a plant that grows from cuttings. We planted each of the 3 parts. I told her we would also grow a new plant from a seed. She was worried that it was too late, but I asuered he we would have a new plant in no time. I got in 11 miles today. I'm hoping my basil plant from trader Joes makes it outside. It has been in the house for a few weeks. Hopefully the impending wind storm tonight doens't wreak havoc on our new plants. I only need to be at about 9 miles, but am happy that I am still ahead of schedule. Hopefully the race itself will be easier if I've had lots of practice going close to 13 miles.
I am trying to run, but I think I am feeling it in my left leg as usual. It feels like that leg gets most of the impact from the ground. I am not in pain yet, but I can tell there will be if I push it a little harder.
ReplyDeleteIf you went to a podiartrist, he would tell you to go to a running store to get properly fit into shoes and insoles if needed. So, I would start with this if you haven't already. If this still isn't helping, I would go see a Dr and see what they can do for you. In the meantime, as I said before, start slow and do mostly walking with only short periods of running.
