It's back!
Man, my right hamstring is tight again today. It's been so great so that makes it extra irritating! I could feel it last night. I didn't take any ibuprofen today, so I'll do that now. And I did do some stretching.
I was feeling a little blah today (I think I've said before, July is catching up!!) so I went to the gym but took it pretty easy. I did the treadmill for.....15 minutes? At the full 15% incline. But I just walked. And then I lifted weights. I also ran hills at lunch! Yes, you heard me! I did! It was beautiful out!
So yet another person talked to me today, this time at the gym. That's three people in three days! Anyway, he was this giant meat-head guy. So tall (over 6 feet, I'm sure) with just gigantic muscles. And I was thinking to myself, "He has to be using roids. Must." He was there with a workout partner. So I go over to this leg press machine. This kind:
Sorry, that image is giant. Anyway, giant man came over to a squat machine by me and then about 10 minutes later his workout pal came over. And they were talking and this guy had a crazy deep voice. He then turns to me and kneels down and says, "Hey, want me to stand on that? I'll add some weight for you!" And I said, "NO THANKS!" And then we both laughed. And he said, "Well, it's supposed to be hard!"
Anyway, funny, weird, and odd!

Glad to hear you're making friends wherever you go!
I did get up and do a fast 2 mile walk this morning. Left heel bothering some so will see what I learn at PT this morning. Beautiful morning here, too. Perfect.
How was your PT appointment? And I was wondering if you are getting any sleep yet? I sure hope so. Couple of days of no sleep and I'm into a tailspin!
I have been meaning to ask how the Peace 5k went. Was it well attended? Fun? Sure hope so.
I haven't slept all week. Terrible. No clue what's going on. Feel ok and no pains anywhere. Tired but lay down and just toss and turn most of the night. Get up and roam around and lay back down for more tossing and turning. Last night was the 4th night.
So, no walk this morning. Just don't have the energy.
PT was ok. She did an ultrasound treatment on the heel and showed me a couple of exercises but time is what it needs. So....
Peace 5k went great! She had 59 runners and all seemed to enjoy it. I was the only no show! Well, I was there but didn't run.
