So, I have stuck with my BR workouts everyday, so excited to start Phase 2 on Monday...........however, my right shin area has been KILLING me for the last week and a half. Thought maybe it was shin splints (also doing the C25K training program, on week 7). I finally couldn't take it any more and went to the doctor today, got an xray. Nothing showing on there, but doctor said absolutely NO IMPACT for a week (no running, jumping, jogging, butt kicks, fast feet......waaaaahhhhh!!!!). I am so mad/disappointed that I can't go on to the next phase :sad: I guess no running but will do our walks instead, and stick with what I can in Phase 1, workouts 3 and 4 and do everything except things that will cause leg impact........

Got 2 lovely shots in the hip and a week's prescription of predisone.

Needed to vent, I hate this!! Guess my old body is rebelling after all I've asked it to do!:noway:

    Oh that stinks! I can imagine how it would feel to have such great momentum going then have to stop for a bit. It's just a small hiccup! You will get there!
