Biked 6 miles.
Total: 73/75
I will end up going over. I will raise the cap next month.0 -
Today was a good day! I started at 6:30 this morning...
23.70 miles...my feet are cryin'!!
Tomorrow won't be like today, but I need to get up into the green (hopeful) and somewhere in the first 25 on the Fitbit leaderboard. This should teach me not to be such a putz!!!
Hope everyone has a great Sunday!

HKRISTINE & SCARFE - thanks so much for the advice! I had no idea that so many of us here would've had experience with it! That just blows my mind...and at the same time makes me all the more thankful to have this group and all of its wonderful people in my life, caring about and supporting each other. Thank you so much. :flowerforyou:

No problem... and to sort of "second" what SCARFE said about the tennis ball, my injury doc actually recommended a lacrosse ball. It was hard enough and small enough that it could get to the places I really needed to massage, as opposed to a foam roller, which I have never quite been able to get the hang of using. My injury was to my psoas muscle group though, so my method of treatment might be different from what you need. The psoas is the muscle group that starts at the front pelvic area and goes all the way through to the lower back. To massage it, I basically had to try to push the lacross ball underneath my hip bone in the front. Awkward, but super helpful.0 -
Man - I'm so sorry to hear about everyone with hip pain - a hip injury is what kept me out of the game for about a year. NO FUN! I really endorse the pigeon pose as a good one... I mean, really, just sit in that pose for as long as you want - minutes upon minutes if you can (warm up first, though - don't just go right into it). My injury doctor also had me do a bunch of exercises to strengthen the other muscles around my hip/butt, etc. He recommended doing something called the Myrtl routine. You can google it. I do it (well, should do it - I've been a bit more lax about it lately but I still try to do it) 3 times per week. It takes about 10 minutes to go all the way through the routine, so not too time consuming, and I noticed a huge difference after just a few weeks of doing it, in terms of my ability to do it and my ability to run further without increasing the pain. I really hope you all get better very very soon!!!
Thanks for the Myrtl routine info hkristine1. I've heard of it in my google searches. Now I need to try it. :flowerforyou:0 -

OK - it's likely that I am out of action for the rest of the month as still fairly beaten up after being knocked off....again! Ankle isn't broken but still more than double its normal size, but the bruising has started to go from purple to yellow which is good0 -
