I'm still around. I'm busy with 5 papers that will substitute finals for 3 of my classes, and wrapping up my first field placement!
I learnt some things today:
- THINKING positive helps! If you're optimistic, you really do look at things in a better way.
- Mondays don't have to suck.
- TAKE IT EASY now, because you can always ramp up the intensity later. This is especially important today, as I ran 1.2k (2 laps) on the outdoor track at school. I felt great and wanted to do more, but I can always do more later if I stay on the path of healing! I am so excited that my knee felt okay... half marathon #2 is coming up May 1st and it is FAST APPROACHING!!
I will leave you with a couple of pics from my first ever trail race. I almost came in last, but I DID IT!!
Congrats on your trail run and I'm happy to hear your knee is getting better. When you get a chance, you should have an Orthopaedic Doctor look at it.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on your training! Oh and yes, I'm still suffering from the same ankle injury from freaking October.
First of all thanks for the sweet comment on my blog!
ReplyDeleteSecon, congrats on your trail run! First trail races (and even 2nd and 3rd) are HARD!!! So pat yourself on the back for completing. Don't ever worry about being last. It's all about finishing!
Its great you were able to run trail pain free. Good luck with your upcoming races
