I CAN RUN AND I DON"T HURT So I went to PT today and had my therapy. I even was able to cancel my message treatment because I'm not sore at all. Brian added some new excersies, I've found my core strength for balance exercise at home this week too. And most importantly I can run! I went to WV high schools track and did a couple laps run around the track. Not all at once to be sure there was not going to be any pain and there was none, zero, nada!I was out of breath and happy! I am so excited. :) Look out Ben here I come! Or should I say.. Look out me! here I come! Dang that's gonna be a different kinda pain. But, I've been missing it and look forward to pushing past it Again. Running is not my strong suit. But, when I ran today instead of going real slow Jay said I was running at the pace I had left off with. Which, was were I was when I ran the CDA 5K and I PR'D it in just 19(min):20(sec).
It was hard to run that pace again but; I did it and I will regain my wind. Now I can look forward to Portland Marathon. Which is my "A" race this year. I am concidering Wunder Woman but, I'm not sure because down hill still causes pain. And, I haven't done a brick in nearly 3 months! We'll see, it depends on PZ and Brian M. next.Shout out to my Hundrey Jay! Thank You For Pulling Me Through This! The last couple of weeks have been discouraging for us both and I really appreciate the love. I'm sorry you're still hurtn' But, You will come back and this thing will pass too. I know you wanted to do CDA Tri next week but, it's just a race and you are not ready yetyou will be by September ready for Black Diamond. It will come, who knows maybe the pain will go away as fast as it came now that you're on the mend. I think personally you saw so many people injured you thought it was part of summer training and just wanted to join the injured support group of HealMyOwie.com LOL.... Love ya babe and I'm here for you like you have been for me!I am M-Dot/Active Girl hear me Shout With Glee!!!!! WEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

Congrats, Michelle! This is wonderful news!
Hey! It's good that you're finally able to get out there and go pain free. I wasn't aware that you were such a strong runner. That had to make this injury even more frustrating. To go from a 5K at 6:13 pace to not being able to run at all would be absolutely maddening! I get pretty frustrated when I have to slow down, so good on you for waiting it out when you weren't able to run at all. I look forward to seeing you out there and tearing it up soon. Keep up the hard work and it won't be long until you're dropping 90 second quarters all over that track! Thanks to you and Jay for being such awesome people!
