I ran today. My ankle felt much better this morning, and then Stephanie brought me an air cast to work at that was even better. I ran around the office a few times and then decided that if I could get my shoe on with the cast, that I would run. And I did. And I'm glad I did. It doesn't feel any worse than it did before the run. And it still feels 100 times better than it did yesterday. I ran pretty slow, and I had to hold on to the treadmill handles some. I took it pretty easy...
This week we are really starting to build on endurance and I CANNOT miss this week! I am going to be running 20 full minutes with no walking on Saturday. I'm, most likely, going to be running a full mile for the first time in my whole life. I cannot miss these 5 and 8 minute runs and be able to keep up with the rest of my group.
Tomorrow I'll rest, and then we have a group run on Wednesday.
I really hope this was not a bad decision...
In Kansas our state motto is Ad Astra Per Aspera, it means To The Stars Through Difficulties. I think it describes my journey quite well. carrierunstothestars.blogspot.com
