Shall we jump back to the last week of August and revisit the Disneyland half marathon? I went from being so incredibly excited to go to Disneyland, run the half and 10k, to worrying how I was going to get around on crutches. After ample Googling, I realized I’ll need to rent a wheelchair. My […]

Runner Down!

I really dislike blogging non sequentially, but my foot injury has taken a high priority in my life towards the end of summer and into fall. I work front desk sometimes at the gym 5:45am-1pm. I actually love it- I’m up early, cheery, I have friendly regulars, and finishing at 1pm lets me do other […]

Added another mile to my running today, and then decided to just make it a 5k. I definitely felt some soreness and aching from my ankle, but as usual I came home and iced it right away. I plan to rest tomorrow, and Friday return to my running group but take it easy. Today is […]
Officially Returning to Running!

It was a really great Tuesday: amazing weather AND I went for another run! My comeback is live and happening! A slow and steady 2 miler. It was fine, I felt out of shape, which is to be expected after not running for a month and a half. I came home and iced right away […]

Last Friday, we celebrated Dan’s birthday with our running group (aka our hash). It was loads of fun, but before I get into that I have monumental news: I went for a run today! It’s my first run back from my achilles injury. It was slow and a little painful (not in my achilles, but […]
