Log 8

A bit of frustraion mixed in with a change of mind.

Walking the mile back to my car today I decided to give myself that time to be pissed. I'd give myself that moment then move on.

A tweaked quad allowed myself to curse all the sweaty runners who pounded the asphalt as I walked back.

Now, it's about healing and patience..... And electro stim,.

Mile seven of yesterdays 13 mellow run brought about a tight, strange, shooting sensation on my right leg. Knee, quad, hamstring? It feels like a pinched nerve. I was angry. I wasn't pushing it yesteray.

I went home and gently massaged and iced.

Today the schedule called for 18. The leg said no after a mile and a half.

I was hoping a warm up, good stretch, and positive thinking would cover it.

I went home and iced again. It smells like a geriatric ward in here. FLEXALL!!

I'll ice upon waking.

Listen to the body. I'll call Doc Smith in the morning and hopefully get some electro stim. and positive vibes.
