Just do what?

I got a t-shirt for my birthday, a Reebok t-shirt poking fun of Nike with "Just Do What?" across the chest. I think its great, although I do like the slogan "Just Do It." I mean really, what better advice is there? Always dreamed of doing something?, well Just Do It.

As for my knee...I am healing, slowly but surely. I was able to sprint from a class out to the bus stop today to pick up some newspapers, which may not seem like a big feat, but trust me, it was! I have cut back to running about 5km a few times a week. And even though its probably not the best for my leg, I play ultimate every so often. Lots of sprinting and turning sharply... so much fun! If anyone has never played ultimate, I would highly recommend it!

C'est la vie!

So heres why i havent posted any updates on my running life... I havent been running for the last oooh almost 2 weeks. It feels like such a long time. My physio suggests I don't do the marathon as planned... how am i feeling about this? Well it sucks. Although I'm accepting it. I would rather run a marathon at a time when I know I won't potentially ruin my whole running career (maybe lifestyle is a better word). So I am hoping I will at least be able to do the half marathon with my TNT teammates. I have 3 weeks to get better... Just do it!

April Fool's Half Marathon



Disctance: 21km

Time: 1:50

This sunday was the April Fools Run on the sunshine coast. It was awesome. The weather was great and the course was better than I was expecting. Quite a few ups and downs, but it was nice having that variety. I am once again really sore though. Limping around a lot, but i had yoga tonight and i think that helped me loosen up. I cant wait for the marathon to be over so i can go a few weeks without any serious running and let my body recover properly. Only five weeks left!
