Yesterday, the temperatures finally got above freezing. We headed out to the park for a 10 miler. The wind was pesky but it was nice to finally be outside running. After 5 we stopped back at the car for a drink and GU. Tayler read that taking a GU every 45 minutes really does help. I had been feeling some tightness in my calf and it band area. Unfortunately, the tightness turned to pain. A way too familiar pain. I stopped and stretched again. Finally at 6.17 I surrendered to the pain. I am praying that I stopped soon enough. I want to be running in Austin in two weeks, not getting MRIs and doing weeks of PT. AGAIN. I can walk today but not pain free. BUMMED. My pace was really good yesterday, like new PR good. I felt good. The pain seems to come out of nowhere. I hobbled around afterwards, iced and stretched. The minute I got home from church this morning I changed back into pajamas. I am going to rest, ice and finally catch up with my DVR. We have been missing each other.
Do you have big Superbowl plans? Who are you cheering for?
I think I am going to skip out on the party this year and enjoy Taco Soup in my pjs. Cheering for the Packers since they have a former Red Raider on the team and I really want them to win without Farve.
