Last Thursday, my doctor told me to ditch the boot, and ditch the cruthes - a small ankle brace it is for me! :) HURRAY!
And then I got sick... :( With an AWFUL cold. But I went swimming and did my 1250 yards - felt awesome. You know what I learned swimming? That you use your foot in an array of different motions and that my right foot has lost it's flexibility. It will take time to get it to do the things the left one does, but hey, I can swim, and it doesn't hurt! Just so weird!
Went biking and did a good 7 miles - should have been ten but we ran out of time. Didn't even hurt a little bit. BUT, I found out that I did not retain ANY muscles in my right leg. My calf muscle doesn't exist even the slightest. It's so sad.
I also know that I can run up my stairs. I'm not supposed to run, but sometimes I forget, and run to go get something and then realize, I RAN! lol So I think I'll be running in no time. HOPEFULLY. :)
I just need four good weeks of running training to finish the 10k at a slow pace.
BUT HEY - I get to do my tri! OH HURRAY!!!!!
