RunElRun

Just a mom and wife trying to keep it all together and to know at the end of my life I can "slide in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "Woo Hoo, what a ride!"
Heading out in my neon to see how far these legs are gonna take me. Probably should have an idea but nope just going with the flow this morning!

3 miles done

Haven’t posted much due to injury and trying to figure out what is going on. I also have Achilles tendinitis. Had my first PT session yesterday. Started with heat therapy followed by ultrasound. Next was massage and I was all oh yeah until she started. Holy Hades, I almost threw up. She started working int the muscle and it was agony. I knew my leg was tight but goodness. She also did a gait analysis and I am a heel striker. We will work on getting me to land mid foot. I am being faithful on the stretching and excersises she gave me. Note, when hubby is holding rubber and away from you don’t let it slip off you foot. I laughed so hard I was crying. He makes the kids hold it now! I am clear to run as long as I pay attention and really stretch. Looking forward to upping the mileage. I was also told how much I would benefit from cross training, I know I know not the first time I have heard this, so I joined a gym. I swam nationally all through middle and high school and really want to get back in the pool.

Need to get my eating back on track again. Portions have been getting bigger again and all the crap is being consumed. I got a bit depressed over my leg and not being able to run and stopped worrying about eating. Guess what, crap in makes you feel like crap. Shocker I know. Back on track now and feeling good!

I know half of you don’t know I exist but I am so inspired by your daily lives and your fitness journeys! Keep it up peeps, you inspire people even if you don’t know it.

5.3 glorious miles done… now time to enjoy friends and good food!

Foam Fest 2013 was a load of fun.  No way is it anything more than just to go out and have a silly time with friends!  Team for next year is already in the works but Glamper Girls will have to change their name seeing as my son will be on the team next year.  We camped all weekend at the park that hosted the even and all the hubbys took all the pics for us!  Can’t think of a better way to spend Mother’s Day weekend!

Happy Mothers Day! We are on another Glampin weekend and I got 7 non-running friends to join me in the Foam Fest 5k. This is the hubby trying to dig out something from my foot… ohhhhh the pain!!! Heehee. Suck it up buttercup.
