This is not going well friends. Monday I ran 3.5 in 80 degree heat. Awesome. Tuesday's are usually "rest days" since I work both jobs and frankly don't have time. So far, so good. Until....
Last night I played kickball. I was up to "bat." I kicked the ball... I ran as fast as I could to first... I made it! And then I thought, "Uh oh that's not good." My right leg hurt. Whatever. Jay's up next... he kicks... I sprint to second. Now I'm on second base thinking, "Uh oh this is REALLY not good." Thankfully the inning was over with the next kicker because I don't think I could have run to third.
It's official. I pulled my quad. I am on a strict regiment of ice and advil thanks to Dr. Bipul! But worst of all - I'm not supposed to exercise for the next couple of days. It will be ok - now I have time to go through all of my clothes and get rid of everything I don't like, that doesn't fit, that's too old etc. That's been on my list for awhile.
Also good news! My Mom is done with teaching for the year and has decided to start her own "summer revolution." We've already gone for a (slow) walk at the same time together while talking on the phone. I'm excited that we will be able to support each other on our healthy endeavors!
