Guys.
I ran 3 whole miles last night.
They weren’t fast, and they weren’t particularly pretty. But I ran all three miles WITHOUT PAIN!
I am very excited about this. Can you tell?
I stopped half a mile in, at 1 mile, and at 2 miles to stretch, just to be sure. And my leg was tight. It’s still a bit tight this morning. But it’s not sore. I’m going to keep up the stretching and the massage and just hope for the best.
Not sure what I’m going to run on Sunday. I think the plan originally called for something like six miles. Might try for five and see how that feels. All treadmill miles, just in case. That way I can stop immediately if I feel any pain and don’t have to worry about how the heck I’m going to get back home.
In other exciting news, tomorrow is Betsy’s first half marathon! Everyone wish her luck. I know she’s gonna be amazing. I can’t wait to cheer her on through the finish.
Megan, do you have a foam roller? That might help with the tightness! Hope your friend did OK today despite the awful conditions at Diva!
I have all of the massage tools. And they help for sure. I just need to be better about using them!
she has an intrument of torture…
