I woke up this morning and my achilles (sp?) tendon was soooo tight. I couldn’t even put any weight on my foot. I sat in bed and tried to stretch it out. I got it to loosen up enough to hobble to the bathroom and then the hot shower helped a little more. I’m at work now and it’s still tight especially after I am sitting for a few minutes and then have to stand up for a customer. I guess I really need to make sure I stretch out before AND after my workouts.
Yesterday I did 30 minutes on the elliptical and 30 on the treadmill. I decided the days I am not doing the 5k training I am going to walk on the cross country setting of the treadmill. It changes the incline as if you were hiking but I get to pick the speed. I have done it twice now and find it challenging (9% incline!) but fun.
Food was on track yesterday too. I actually have been having a great week! I’m interested in Friday’s weigh-in, I hope it reflects the hard work I feel like I’m doing….
