Yes I did it! I successfully completed session #2. I might have even run a little more than was required since I kept having trouble remembering what time it would be when I’d pick up a walk again. Old age? Don’t believe in it, the mind is just another muscle we need to exercise regularly.
The Session wasn’t bad at all. And the day’s “goal completion” feeling was well worth it! I got the girls out of daycare, everyone showered, and home for dinner for a warm-up and eat meal. (I’ll give more details about how I do dinner these days, later. Hint: more scheduling!)
So, more about feelings and pains while completing Session #2: My feet have been behaving nicely. I bought some new sneaks for myself on my birthday. They are Asics Gel Trabuco running shoes and only ~$40 since they were on clearance from last season. The only catch is they are ORANGE! I don’t mind though. I also bought some no-show New Balance socks. Now I didn’t get analyzed by a computer or some sales person watching my gait, but all seems good with these new items.
Yesterday I changed out my work sneaks. The old ones had who knows what on them: Acrylamide, Acylonitrile, solvent, who knows what else. So I down graded my other workout shoes to my new work shoes. But for some reason I got a very small blister- or spot where the skin rubbed off on the back of my tendon while working. A small bit aggravating, but wasn’t bothered while I ran.
My other issue was something silly the night before. We all went to Bluebird Gap Farm where the Hampton Parks and Recreation puts on summer night movies. While waiting for sundown there is a DJ that plays games with the kids and fun line dancing music. The girls wanted to go up with the other kids but aren’t confident to go on their own (well they were fine with this by the end of the night) but, in the midst of the Hokie Pokie I was holding my youngest, showing her how it goes and I pulled something in my back below my shoulder blade. Wasn’t ‘till next day that I felt it. But it gave me no pains during the session, and it’s even better today.
So in summary I had two little issues, but plan to keep with it!!! YEAHHH!
