it doesnt look good..

-

ok.. its almost been a week since my last run..
I was on my feet for about 12 hours on thursday working and it wasnt good for my foot..

its been hurting pretty consistently since thursday.. even when i am just sitting.

needless to say i am very bummed, upset, frustrated and trying hard to not let it get me down. I guess it just yet another thing to wait out and work through and figure out how to stay active while i heal.

Good news is i can swim 5 days a week at our local Univ. pool! they expanded the hours :) .. so..
we will see if i can actually make myself go. AND hopefully swimming wont hurt my foot.

I figure .. worse case scenario i will walk the half marathon in Nov.

(hope this is all making sense.. i was up until 2 last night watching Ike come ashore.. Josha.. bet your glad your not in Houston anymore :)

I hope A is at your house.
swimming sounds like a great option! Letting it heal is the most important part, though. Even if getting to the pool or biking doesn't happen, healing must! I want my running buddy to keep running, so that means stopping for now!

18 years of Choosing to Start Over

-
Welcome to were it all started, this space I created in January of 2006 to help me navigate my journey to personal health and fitness. I have come a LONG way from that first post 18 years ago and I am so grateful for all I have learned along the way. I will be coming here a lot more often over the next weeks, months and years as I have decided to begin writing, journaling and sharing here again. I hope and pray you might find inspiration here to help you along your own path to health and fitness. Please note that this 18 year journey consisted of several things I learned that did not work for me, others programs, supplements and others ideas of nutrition, health and fitness. I am leaving all these as is, so you can see my journey. I will be talking more about the different things I tried thru the years and what I learned about myself and what works for me along the way. If anything this blog chronicles my story of starting over and making hard choices to be who I someday dreamed of ...

The Experiement

Ok... so like I have said I have been about 90% raw for the past 3.5 weeks. So what was the Experiement you ask?  To eat "regular" meals for 24 hours and see how I felt. I ate "normal" foods like taco stew, corn bread, eggs, a few cookies (yes, cookies!). This morning I woke up and decided to have some hot decaf tea, eggs, and while my breakfast tasted yummy.. it was no where near as tasty to me as my all fruit breakfasts I have been having. About an hour later I was CRAVING fruit! I also had a slight headache. :( So I grabbed an orange. Later for lunch I had left over taco stew, come corn chips.... and again, while it tasted ok.. was nice and warm .. it left me wanting... CRAVING..  fruit. I also had.. you guessed it... a headache. Also.. last night... I woke up HUNGRY! I havent woken up hungry since giving 801010 a try. Going into this process I didnt think I would last 2 days. After making it over 3 weeks and having amazing results I have just been so shock...
