Well HOPEFULLY.......I have one more week of therapy and then I can start doing a little bit of running. That is our plan anyways.
Saturday I went for a 4 mile walk.......my calf muscle was so tight that it hurt to put weight on it after the walk. My therapist thinks I was favoring my knee and walking on the side of my foot causing the cramping/tightness in my calf.
We're working on strengthening my right hip. There is a BIG difference in strength and balance from my right to left side. My right side is really weak. So hopefully all of the exercises I've been doing will help out!
I rode my bike tonight for 45 minutes. I did yesterday too. That seems to help stretch out my muscles.
Hope you are back to running Roger. And I'm hoping to be back running with you soon Amber!!
Happy Running!
Keep at it. I'm working on getting motivation for my 2 miles tonight.
ReplyDeleteHi Tina. I have not run for 2 1/2 weeks. It totally sucks. I still am unable to extend my right leg in a jog. I can work and walk, but the run is not a go yet. Oh well, I have what, 8 weeks till the next half. Hope you are running soon. It is a drag to not to something that you really enjoy.
