Run Stuff

I’ve done a few little “practice” runs over the last two weeks. I kinda felt like I might jinx it if I announced it, so I just kept quiet and did a couple easy miles at a time.

After 3 SLOW miles tonight, my ankles still feel ok. So that’s awesome. But, I’m all paranoid I’m gonna overdo it and fuck them up again :/

Baby steps? Baby steps.

Also an FYI: if you basically completely quit running and start eating shitty food and work nights for two months straight, you will lose EVERY TINY FUCKING BIT of strength and endurance you might have had.

I really am starting over.

Sunday Run

Three miles slow. No real pain in the ankles, just some soreness.

Exciting I know.

Run Stuff for the LRG

I meant to post earlier but I forgot.

Missed Monday’s, sore ankles after 3 nights at work.

Did 3 slooooooow miles today (Weds).

Have to be referred to Sports Medicine doc by my PCP so it’s going to be at least a couple weeks before I get in to see them. Meaning my body will probably have healed on it’s own before anyone even sees me. Thank you government and your awesome healthcare system.

If you actually read this post, I’m sorry.

Week in review for LRG

Monday 3
Friday 4 
And I’ll try for 5 tonight

My ankles are bothering me again. Not as bad as before but they’re tender. I think I might make an ortho/sports med appointment.

Run Stuff

Failed to post yesterday’s run because as soon as I walked back in the door I got a frantic call from work asking where the hell I was. Apparently someone switched up my schedule and forgot to tell me. Ughhhhh. Needless to say, I panicked and scrambled and got there 30 mins later.

Anyway, ran 3 yesterday evening, walked around the unit for 12 hours, came home and slept, and then ran 3 this evening.

My ankles hurt.

This counts as my heat run, because holy shit it was 80 degrees. I’m so spoiled, I don’t know how you guys farther south do it.

Bonus nosy cat photobomb because he’s an attention whore.

Hey Assholes:

Replying to a group MMS is just like “reply to all” in an email.

Love you anyway

Friday Run

Ankle update: a little tenderness starting out. Then good for about 2 miles. A little pinch-y at 2.5,  so I stopped at 3.

Sunday Six

My goal was under 66, so I made it, barely. Also, this one counts as my heat run, it was sunny and 65. I’m totally spoiled by the weather here.

Ughhhhh. Stupid 34 seconds. In my defense, the 5lbs of rainwater I collected on my clothing probably slowed me down.
