A mother's quest to get back in shape and re-capture a smidge of "me" time in the process.

This is a BIG speedbump!
So, the goal was rest, ice, recovery during much of last week. My Friday training run was an EPIC fail. Just 2.5 miles and the cramp/pain was back in my left calf. It took me almost 5 hours of walking and stretching to get the pain to stop. I limped around Convention and felt like Keyser Sosay (probably misspelled that one) from The Usual Suspects...although I wasn't faking it. (I still love that movie...although I digress.) In any event, I cancelled my 16 mile training run on Sunday and promptly scheduled an appointment with Max Sports Ohio for tomorrow afternoon. Ok, this is going to be super sales-y but I love Max Sports. They do whatever they can to keep you in the game. Hopefully, Dr. Bright will have some way to keep me on track for my marathon. I will keep you posted. Until tomorrow...keep running, walking or just plain being active!
