When Will It End?
As my boss said last week in a group meeting – what is going on in the financial markets is “unprecedented”. It’s hard to believe this current upheaval has been going on for almost 3 weeks. I am so tired of it – it truly is exhausting.
The situation has definitely cut into my marathon training, and I really hope I’m going to be able to finish the race. On Saturday I had my 20 mile run scheduled, but ended up only running 16. I just could not muster the energy and felt completely lousy for the last 8 miles or so of the run. I tried some new insoles (Superfeet) in my shoes that left my feet and arches aching. I was going to switch them over to the regular insoles because Jerel was helping out with water support, but he didn’t end up being with the car where I thought he would be. The insoles did, however, take the pressure off of my big toes, so I guess that’s one good thing! Hopefully my feet will get used to them in the next few weeks.
I think I mentioned that my right knee has been aching, and I’m almost 100% sure it’s IT band related. It’s not getting any better, so I have an appointment on Wednesday to see a chiropractor about Active Release Therapy (ART). It’s supposed to be fantastic, and I’m hoping it will solve my problem.
Like Tatum'sMom, I'm having trouble on some blogs with the security code not loading properly. Using a different browser isn't an option for me though, because my company doesn't give me administrative rights in order to download anything. I sent the issue into EP, so hopefully they will get it taken care of.
