Blog transfer!

I'm going to start blogging again. Check out my other blog: babyayala.blogspot.com

Cycle of Life

Here I am after not posting for a while again. I'm post marathon now and I'm really happy about that! Today I went swimming for the first time in a looong time and it was great. My breathing while swimming sucks, but I had a good workout alternating the kick board and the leg floaty thingy so I could work my arms and legs independently. I went and did the elliptical and bike last night and it is a nice change of pace. Ran on Tuesday and last Sunday, so I'm slowly getting into the crosstraining of winter. I need to get back to CrossFit as well, but its more difficult now that our school year start time has changed and I am so busy I don't have the time to do it in the morning. I want to incorporate CF when I go to the gym. This will be entertaining because I am going to the gym of UIC, which primarily is composed of people 10 years younger than me. I'm sure I'll get some weird looks, but mostly I'm in better shape than almost all of them, so I don't care. Who knows, maybe I'll spread my craft!

After 2 saline shots the foot is still sore. I've slacked on my PT, but I plan on getting back into that this week as well. Winter workouts are for rehab! And I've already signed up for a half marathon on May 2, so I have to make sure I stay true to rehabbing!

The wonders of saline

So in the past two weeks I've run 2 runs--3 miles each and my foot hurt. Today I got the saline shot in the heel/arch of my foot. I was told I should be able to run by Tuesday.

I hope hope hope so! Until then rest rest rest!

Crap ass foot

It was supposed to be 16 miles on Saturday.

I got in 14.5

Its now Tuesday and my foot still hurts. Glad its a fallback week.

BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

7 miles on the lakefront

a 9:24 pace average overall.

It was a beautiful, gorgeous, day and I could've run forever!

3.2 mi in the neighborhood

A nice 30 min evening jog with fantastic weather!

Row row row...

5K row
27:41

I started the day off with some PT and some massage of my IT and PF which killed, in a good way. Then I decided to row a bit for crosstraining. I haven't rowed for a while, and I think its kinda pathetic that I can run faster than I can row a 5K!
