Addendum: Magic, part 2

This morning I knew I would be "cross training." My run yesterday made me feel like I could just cruise on a nice walk this morning (and be completely justified in doing so). I was cruising all right, like an 80-year-old with a front-wheeled walker!

Ouch, ouch, ouch! Things hurt today. I couldn't even do a decent paced walk for goodness sake.

After my slower-than-snails walk, I sat down at the computer to work for a while. H. called me up for family prayer and for S. to get a father's blessing pre-girls camp and as I stood up, holy-moly....everything was screaming! Then kneeling down for the prayer was horrible....but nothing compared to trying to get up from kneeling! I had to call H. over to assist! Then he says, hey, let's say our prayer. UGH, really? So I get back down....and have to have him help me up again.

Maybe H. should feel grateful that I'm giving him a peak into our future life together.

RICE it
Rest
Ice
Compression
Elevate

Oh and I also think "I" stands for ibuprofen. :) Take lots of it. I usually would take 4 at a time 2 or 3 times a day. I can't remember. You can email my mom and have her ask my dad.

I think Abbie ice it on her #1 on her list. You don't want to start eating rice and have it all backfire on you. :) That's probably more true than you think about a view for H into the futher and helping you as an old lady. Keep it up, though, you have to be burning a ton of calories.
