I think I strained the arch of my left foot during the half Marathon on Sunday. It ached a bit then, and after resting it for 3 days I thought it was fine. But my subsequent 1 mile fast runs Wednesday and Thursday seemed to aggravate it. It just feels like I pulled it, ya know?
So last night after my run I told myself that I wouldn’t run for a few days…rest it and not actually hurt myself, right?
So imagine my surprise when I woke up early, raring to go! I thought I’d run. It’d be fine, I reasoned. My foot doesn’t currently hurt. Mother nature didn’t think that was a good plan. When I heard the rain I decided a run wasn’t in the cards for today. No need to run in the pitch black and the pouring rain! God must be protecting me, despite my tendency to push myself too hard!
So, I’m laying here, about to start my Marathon day…dentist appointment, 3 hour car ride, and 4 hour wedding reception. I love the calm in the morning before the chaos ensues.
Happy Friday friends! Have a fantastic day!
