Threw out my back

On Tuesday, bent over and couldn’t stand back up straight. So… spent an hour stretching and strengthening with my trainer, and won’t do any more running for a few days.

Two steps forward, one step back, right?



Week 2

Today, I started Week 2 of the running podcast. 2.5 minutes of walking followed by 2.5 minutes of walking, repeated for about 25 minutes.

For those of you who’d like to follow suit:

Restarting

Haven’t been disciplined about this but am now restarting the Podcast running program. Am finishing week 1 and will be moving onto week 2 over the weekend.

My feet hurt quite a bit… may be time to go to the running store and have them analyze my gait.



My trainer has helped. A lot.

I am lucky enough to be able to afford (in both time & money) a personal trainer. We work mostly on balance & strength, but with her help I now – and only now – feel strong enough to start a running program.

I’ve downloaded a Couch to 5K program on my ipod… it seems to be based on the idea that one can run 5K within 8 weeks but I don’t think that’ll be me. But, I don’t actually care about how long it takes… just that it happens for me eventually.

Wish me luck!



Can't even run 1K at the moment.

Sore ankle, stiff knee, tight hip. But, going to try… going to try.
