T-10 Weeks until the Chicago Marathon
Anonymous asked: Hi, I don't have a Tumblr but I follow your blog. I was wondering if maybe your pain could be Tibialis Anterior Tendon Sheath Inflammation. Google to see symptoms. They are similar to stress fracture. I just recovered from it last month. 2 weeks of resting (no running, cycling a few times) and I was good to go. Good luck finding out the cause of your pain and I hope you are well soon.

Booo - leg hurts again
Place bets on a stress fracture
You’d be sure to win.
(Guess I’ll make an appt. this week and find out for sure.)
How I got through the last 7 miles of the HOD

When I started my run it was difficult.
It wasn’t that my legs didn’t want to run, they felt fine.
My mind just couldn’t keep them going.
I’d run about 50 ft and then have to walk.
Another 50 ft and then have to walk again.
I knew how far I had to go, I had a goal in mind and I wasn’t going to make it if I couldn’t find a rhythm or a pace and stick with it.
So the...

i-used-to-be-me asked: How's the leg? Been thinking about you......
Oops
Oh, good. That thing publishes publicly.
Lesson learned.
Now you know where I was! Hahaha!
Had a great time! My work hosts “Fed-Ex Day” once a quarter. We form teams and get to work on whatever we want for 24 hours (hence the name), as long as the project benefits the company.
My team won! Yay!! Lots of pizza and beer. I think I gained 5 lbs.
My leg is still effed. Not sure...

So I'm thinking of bringing back the 1000 pushup...
inventinganewme:
I missed it last time I saw this one running, so I’m bringing it back The idea is to complete 1000 pushups over the course of 1 week. Who’s with me?
How about the 1-10-100-1,000-1,000 challenge? We can call it the 2111 Challenge. 1 week 10 pull-ups 100 burpees 1,000 push-ups 1,000 ab moves I wanted the last one to be 10,000 … but then I got out my calculator and divided...
Tomorrow's workout
I am unsure of what kind of exercising I can do on this leg. The following are probably safe:
Upper Body Workout (weights, push-ups, pull-ups, all that)
Yoga (although I can’t do any that are stand on one leg)
Can I do any of these?
Bicycling
Lower Body Workout (weights and core)
Walk uphill on treadmill
I have no access to a pool.
This reminds me of what if felt like when my mom...
