Day 74
I need new calves and shins.
5 minutes walking
3 minutes jogging/2 minutes walking x 2
3 minutes jogging
*sound of me hitting wall here*
15 minutes walking
Total time: 33 minutes
Total mileage: 1.67 miles
Definitely have to make some adjustments somewhere. More stretching, more cross-training, better diet, extra rest, pre-workout Vicodin, something. Breathing’s great, except when pain kicks in, which makes me labor more. Both calves and shins are giving me major shit right now. Today, it was more the right than the left. At least they match now, I suppose. If all goes well, I’ll have better health coverage within the next month or so, so I’m going to get very seriously looked at if I do.
We’ll see how I feel on Monday. (Wednesday, I missed because my entire course was a puddle of slush with an icy bottom.)

don’t stretch before you’ve warmed up your muscles as this just causes more damage.
