wah!!!!!
I am in Minnesota for work and I sprained the living crap out of my ankle this morning on a run. I am so upset!! It is super swollen and painful. And there is a ton of walking to be done in the airport. And I hate it when the universe makes me take time off. The last time I sprained my ankle was probably 5 1/2 years ago and I had to take four weeks off and go to this awesome PT in Boulder because somehow I got Posterior Tibialis Tendonitis (I have no idea if that's spelled correctly) from the sprain. I think that probably happened again just based on how it feels.
Luckily I had read a big blog entry about deep recovery and I never really took a bunch of time off after my season so I'm trying hard to convince myself that it's for the best. Deep recovery should theoretically make my muscles totally rested and somehow make me faster in 2009. I hope. Oh I am so nervous!!
Before my run this morning sucked the life out of me I did go for a swim at a gym up here in a 25 yard pool. They are so cute and short! I felt like I was turning constantly and I kept losing track of my laps because they were so short. It was good for my ego however!
I am running off to the airport, I'll try to write more before I head off on vacation!!
