Blog apologies
Sorry for taking so long to post. I've been mega-busy and tomorrow I leave for San Diego for 5 days. Unfortunately, it's work related. I got out and ran 3 miles on Monday but that's about it. My heel is hurting me for some reason. It feels like there is no cushion between my heel and the ground. I have no idea what it is. But, I can tell you it hurts like hell.
I still have to decide what I'm doing for the Richmond Half. I haven't completely ruled out running it, but if my heel doesn't get better, I may be on the sidelines cheering for everyone.
Next week I plan on starting my gym routine again. This winter I'll be focusing on my core. Lots of ab and back work. I'm actually kind of excited as I'm a little burned out with just running. I can't wait until I really start my Ironman training. I can't wait to liven things up a bit.
I've mentioned it before, but I'm getting a coach this winter. I guess I could figure out the training myself for the Ironman stuff, but I think I'd like to get a professional opinion on training.
Congrats to David on adding a new runner to his family!!
Woot!

Thanks for the shoutout! I'll have a great future runner photo to post this weekend. As for your injury, it sounds exactly like what I experienced last year after the Richmond Marathon. In hindsight, to me it felt like my heel was hitting a brick. The only thing that helped was rest. Of course now that I have a gym membership I would do things a lot differently. There's always the 8k next weekend if you feel that itch to do a race.
Take care of your heel, don't push things. Can't wait to follow your ironman adventure!
Getting a professional sounds good. Just make sure they know what they are talking about!
