running update

took a week off. It wasn't hard in the sense I was hurting. Frustration was high and was very anxious to be sitting out.

Mark and I traveled to B'ham on Friday and I was not at all confident I would be able to get out there on Saturday as planned, even after the week of rest But, saturday morning Mark and I headed out to a track, plan was.... walk ONLY. Did a good stretch session and stuck to the plan, I was stiff and my calf was definitely tight. Walked for 50 mins followed by another stretch session. Took a "hot tub" soak in really hot water and continued to stretch some more. The rest of the day I continued to be stiff and experiencing some pain..REALLY FRUSTrated. Went to bed with 800mg of Ibuprofen.

Today, I may have received the healing I was praying for. Woke up feeling good, really good.....no pain, no limp..did another walk session, only 35 mins today and again stretched really well. It's the close of the day and it was virtually discomfort free!! Day off tomorrow and I HOPE to add some running back in Tuesday!
