My journey in trying to balance a sedentary job with some workouts and a crazy-busy family.
I run because I fear the day when I can't.

L knee still tight and swollen! Man, it's been nearly a month. Walked today and didn't feel much pain. Moved a lot at work, walking from meeting to meeting and otherwise have been keeping it elevated as much as possible. Feeling better in the evening for some reason.

Corning dog walk :-)
Garmin Connect
Wanted to walk longer but couldn't fit it into the schedule. Slept great & longer than usual, then stretch, and then a walk. Great morning was crucial since I'll be mostly sitting around during dance recitals for the rest of the day.

Garmin Connect. Glad the start the day w/ some stretching. Then I was able to stroll around Elmira for the first time in 15 years while Allison was at the rehearsal for her dance recital on Sunday. We were at the Clemens Center until 9pm Friday night to practice w/ the Elmira studio folks, and had to return today for the Watkins Glen folks (ballet). Eh, it's what you do when you have kids.

Now, last night I was up past 11 working, and no problems today. Brian even woke me at 4am but still I had no trouble waking and felt great all day. My body is confusing myself.

A nice walk to start the day. Belle was in heaven as she didn't have to be on the leash at all.

Garmin Connect: Finally not feeling like crap so very happy to get out w/ the dog this morning. Almost jogged a bit but decided to just keep it slow. BP 125/74 pulse 80.

Garmin Connect - walk
Garmin Connect - Tried to focus on keeping a quick pace & it paid off. Felt nicely winded when I was done. It was a bit breezy which kept me cooler than I would have preferred, but it was probably for the best in the end.

Easy workout
Garmin Connect - very tired this morning but had to walk the dog! ended up doing three sets of lunges and mountain climbers which immediately improved the ankle.

Walk and jog
Garmin connect - a bit sleepy this morning but very happy to get up and moving and even jogging a bit. breathing very hard going uphill felt great. ankle wasn't perfect, but hours late in not feeling any discomfort or pain! I continue to massage it every morning even before getting out of bed and that seems to be working.

Garmin Connect - Walk / Jog
Garmin Connect: Not too breezy to be outside so I had some fun making up a route w/ belle. I got a burr up my butt and decided to jog a little, too. Just a few minutes but at the end of an uphill climb so definitely got the breathing going. I started the day with a long yoga session and this felt pretty good, too. No issue with the heels today but I'll be cooped up in the car tomorrow, driving to a funeral and back so glad to get this in the books. Officially put 100 miles on a pair of sneakers with this one, too :-)

Garmin Connect - Dog Walk
First Yoga, then walking. Can't believe how windy it was - made it much colder than the thermometer said. Jogged for just a minute or two for fun. Hoka Clifton's helped cushion things. I also took a few minutes before getting out of bed and massaged my heels using the balls of my feet and opposite heel. I did it for the last few days and I'll try to keep it up.

Only 27° - I should have worn pants. But I stuck it out and got in a full mile. Need to start putting some pace into these soon.

Down to 225!
Yesterday I didn't go to the gym for my 30 minute walk, but did several 10-min at work instead. Today, for the first time in probably a year, I weigh less than 225. Sure, by only .2 lbs, but I'll take it.
Little B had a rough night and I didn't get much sleep, but I did my programmed run today: 4min run, 1 walk, repeat 6 times. I was tired but motivated because my new sneakers finally arrived. I tried the Under Armour Renevant and was not impressed. It felt okay to put on, but not exceptional. And after 20 minutes or so, I realized that part of the lacing was actually chafing my toes. I thought about trying them again until I took them off and one of my heels was similarly irritated. Best to stick with New Balance, Brooks, and Saucony. I'm returning the UA if I can. Unless someone out there wants to try them - they're size 10.5 D.
