A look back at May goals
May 6 Half Marathon goal time 2:20 - I didn’t hit this goal time due to injury. I was 9 minutes off and I was super pissed about it but I guess I learned some stuff and I finished, so that’s better than not.
Focus on following the physio plan to help/heal my plantar fasciitis - I did all of the things asked of me to heal, but the healing hasn’t happened yet.
Prepare to...

Clearly there was a lot of bloating going on.
I went to one of those Turbo Jam classes tonight. I pretty much hated every minute of it. I went because I need to keep my cardio going while I’m not supposed to be running much and the thought of spinning on the bike wasn’t really doing it for me tonight.
I checked out which drop in classes were going on at my gym and I thought this one sounded alright so I went, forgetting why I...

Toronto Women's Runs Half Marathon Race Recap
This was the race I was not supposed to run. Right up until 4 days before the race I wasn’t even sure what I was going to do. My options were, run the race and risk injuring myself further or don’t run the race and be depressed and wonder if I should have, or try to drop down to the 5K. Deep down, I think I pretty much knew I would do the half, despite everyone I talked to including my...

Not down, not up!
This new sports medicine clinic I’m visiting is within a fancy schmancy gym. This lady just came in with her gym clothes neatly hung on 2 hangers. Is this real life?
The 10 lb gain
I’ve gained 10 lbs in approximately 2 months or so.It was a bit of up and down, but I can generally think back to 2 months of making excuses. I’m going to write out my excuses here and then we’re going to note that these are not valid excuses and move on. I also want to note though, that I don’t feel that any one of these things alone is a deal breaker, it was the...
The last 3 days have been “what not to do before running a half marathon.” with this injury it’s really hard to be excited or positive headed into the race, but I’m trying. I also feel really fat headed into this race. Sigh.
