ORN: { }
My feet hurt so I am going to take some time off. I've been in denial about it, but the plantar fasciitis in my left foot is not getting any better with all this speedwork and hill workouts. My dear Wifey keeps commenting on my old-man-staggering-around when I rise from my chair or lumber out of bed. If the dog were gimping around like I have been lately, I'd put it out of its misery.
Therefore, I am going to take some time off from running and see how that works. I'll start with a week. Maybe two weeks. Meantime, I will work try stationary bikes, the swimming pool, and other non-weight-bearing exercises in order to keep fit. I'll write updates here from time to time, but since this is a running blog, not a rowing-machine blog, I'll post here even less frequently than usual until I get back on the road.
I think its for the best, but you know you more than I know you, right?
ReplyDeleteHope its a good rest. Let's get another podcast going to talk about post marathon pains and after-maths!
Get well soon! PF can be a trial; believe me, I know!
ReplyDeleteTake good care of the injury. 136 days to go should give you some time to get better and continue getting in shape.
ReplyDeleteHave a good weekend
I had PF and froze a water bottle, and rolled it on my foot.
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better!
How many miles are on the triaxes? Do we need to do you an arch support? Are you icing and stretching the PF?
ReplyDeleteTake care of those feet, Viking so you can get back to blogging (and running) soon!
