Anyway, last Monday I had another massage to try to get things back to normal, and it seemed to help. Wednesday I went to the gym in the morning and did 45 on my new best friend, Mr. Elliptical. Sadly didn't make it back again until today, when I did 30 minutes (at a pace faster than 10/minute miles, woot!) and then jumped on the treadmill to test out the leg. I felt a few teeny tiny twinges at first, but they went away and I ran about 2/3 of a mile before doing a cooldown. This I can do. I stretched, did my exercises (Cheryl, I hope you're reading this), and am now icing. I didn't want to overdo it today because I'm supposed to do 20 tomorrow. That's a little ambitious, so the the plan is to do 11 with the group (if I can without pain) and then make up the rest of the time it would take me to do 9 more on Mr. Elliptical---so another 90 minutes.
Today's Milepost is from my last long run with Talena, waaaaaay back on August 8, taken along the Burke Gilman near Gas Works Park. Isn't she a cute little rascal?
