Closing This Chapter!

Sunday, January 11, 2009
I have not ran in 2, I repeat TWO whole weeks!!! Although I still have managed to get my workouts in at the gym, it's driving me crazy.

As some of you know, I injured my leg (Tibialis posterior-the middle muscle in the calf) on December 18th. So I layed off of it for a week.

On Dec. 29th, my first day back to run... I did it again! So every since then, I have not ran. Plus, the injury took a dive. Because I've been walking differently "dodging my Tibialis" I've been putting more strain on my foot, which has caused my Abductor Hallucis Trans Head and the outer Abductor digiti minimi in the foot to inflame and cause much pain. Great!

On the flip side, I've been swimming... alot!!! As for working out, it's equivelant to running, but less strain on the body.

When I started swimming I could only swim one lap. Sheesh, for loving the water, I never thought it was such a workout! But I swam 30 LAPS freestyle and felt like I could still do more!
That's a 775 meter swim!

So I'm excited to say, that now because I have been obedient by staying off my leg/ankle/foot for a whole 2 weeks, I can tell it's finally getting better! But I'm not going to test it out...
...yet
