With the race last week and the inclusion of 5 days of running, I overused my muscles this week. I always complete a warm-up and cool-down and light stretching, but I somehow hurt my achilles tendon. I looked on the internet to see how this happended and what I can do about it. I increased my workout too soon after my race. The only solution is rest. So, no more intense jogging for a while. That's okay, I still have other things that I can do to burn calories. I should have not only added the extra days, I should not have worked out on Monday following the race. I should have rested...no worries...injuries happen to athletes. Did you read that??? I called myself and athlete. One thing about athletes, they don't let injuries keep them down.
My husband and I just finished my reward for completion of the race. We spent the a day and night together without my son. That has not happened in almost two years. We had a great time and yes, I ate as if I were on vacation. I still held on to my core values, but I did treated myself. We had soooo much fun.
I pre-ordered a new weight loss book. I am excited to read about someone elses success. It is so motivating. Well, I will talk to you later world. Thanks for checking out my blog.
