PT for my foot. The usual painful soft tissue work, then more exercises. Ran in place attached to a bungee - foot felt good the whole time - woohoo!! Have orders to try to do a short run on Saturday/Monday - yay!

Okay - I'm officially a sloth this week... I feel like such a bum, but I haven't really been in control of my schedule the last few days.  Things should be getting back to normal though - PT again this afternoon, then I have to get the house ready for Nate's cousin who's visiting, then I'm going for a bike ride or a swim damnit!!!!

Another freaking busy night tonight.  I'm not going to say I'll ride on the trainer, because every time I say that I skip it!!!

The usual PT for my foot. Did a bunch of new exercises, and learned that the muscles in my injured foot are way weaker than the ones in my right foot when I tried to do balancing.

Going to HAVE to do a trainer ride tonight since I lazed out and took a rest day yesterday.  PT after work then dinner with a friend who's in town - gotta ride whenever I get home, even if it's late!!  Geez - I'm such a slacker this week.  Sat around and chatted with my friend until 10:30, and once again bailed on the trainer ride.  Ugh...

Bike or swim tonight depending on when I get out of work.  Okay, maybe not.  Started painting and spaced out - it was 10 pm before I looked at the clock.  Wasn't feeling motivated to ride on the trainer, so I bailed on the workout... At least the painting I'm working on looks good :)

This week is going to be insane - don't know when I'm going to fit in my workouts the next few days.  Looks like I might be spending lots of time on the trainer :(  This is when I wish I could run - it's so easy to lace up the running shoes and go for a half hour jog when things are busy - not so easy with the swim and bike.  Hoping PT will get my foot back into shape so I can start running again next week...

Swim
  • -----
  • 1500.00 yards

Volunteered as a swim angel at Tri for the Cure - had a good time. I was in the water for about 2 hours - made 2 loops of the swim course in that time. Not really a workout, but I did do the distance so I might as well log it...

Had to talk one girl into doing the swim - she was ready to head for shore after the first 100 yds, but she made it through the whole thing! I was a little bit surprised at how ill-prepared some women are for the swim - there were some women that I don't think would have made it without kayakers/swim angels to hang on to. Anyhow, it was nice just to go to a race to help out for once =)
