Can not exercise, woke up with a case of vertigo. :eek:

Anyone else ever have this happen? I'm convinced it's from what I did exercise-wise yesterday. Was doing a cardio challenge but it also incorporated weights. I don't like doing anything quickly using weights. This routine is off of my list from now on.

Had this happen once before and it resolved itself. Hopefully the same will be true this time.

:(

Well the vertigo resolved itself. Thank heavens! Tues was not good, Wed afternoon I was able to lay down (the vertigo was the kind that happened when you lay down and/or rollover) on the sofa without the full blown spins. Felt gobs better by Wed night. Thurs was spent with the kid at the docs and x-ray clinic. Separated Ac joint (minor, level 1, sling and rest will heal it). Good thing that didn't happen earlier in the week. Feel pretty much ok yesterday and today. Was able to get back to exercising today (would have yesterday had I been home). Will miss my 21 day goal but hey, that's how it goes sometimes. Thx for the well wishes you guys!

Day 16, done. TM, 35 min total; 26 min running.

Finally checked out the pool at my gym today and swam for 35 minutes... and it was exhausting! :lol: I did a few regular laps freestyle, then 20 laps with the kickboard only, then 10 laps with the leg float thing to focus on the upper body, then a few laps backstroke to finish up, and I'm more tired now than I was after the 10K yesterday! It just goes to show how changing up the activity can be good and challenging... apparently I need to swim more often. :) I hope to still get in some strength work tonight if I have the energy (upper body only; my knees need a break!), and then tomorrow I'm going to try out that 5.5 mph run to finish off the month. :D
