ONE 15 - 21 (14.2)

Monday 15

I'm a pathetic endurance athlete. My body is broken.

Rx. RockFloss, rolling, and ice

Tuesday 16

I might be improving a little.

Gym Session

RX. RockFloss and rolling. The pain persists.

Wednesday 17

I had a rough night. I woke with a minor panic attack and dealt with it for 1-2 hours (it seemed that long). This wasn't a major one, but it wanted to hang on. 

I was scheduled for blood work today, but the inclement weather closed the clinic. I assume this will change my other appointment.

Thursday 18

Rx. RockFloss calf and knee. 4 days post injury. i don't know when I should attempt a comeback.

Saturday 20

A.M.: Hot tub, calf raise, squats, plank, crunches, clams, bridge, superman, and push ups. Rolling - pretty much pain free today.

Trying to Run

After my home warm up I was quite optimistic about today's run. I had no pain with rolling. I was OK for about 1.8 miles then things went south, R hamstring, hip flexor, and L achilles. Walked back frustrated. I don't know what I'm dealing with which makes me crazy.
