Good Running! / 6.33

Good day of running over here. Bart and I did a run/walk that was 1.33 miles. I think. And then I ran 5 miles later. How did I spend the rest of my day? Playing video games!

I ran 3 miles outside yesterday afternoon and had some discomfort in the heel and ankle but ran through it. Bothered some the rest of yesterday but this morning - wow! - I could hardly walk when I first got up. Sharp pain in the heel. It loosened up and I've gotten through the day (good thing, too, because this was Easter Sunday!) but that really surprised me. It hurt as bad as it ever has. So, is this therapy helping me or making things worse? The Doctor and physical therapist have both said they need to aggravate this so the body will heal it so I hope that's what's happening here. It is absolutely worse now than it was two weeks ago before I started going to PT again. Appointments again next Wednesday and Friday. I don't know if I'll be running tomorrow morning or not.

On another matter...I can't publish a new thread here. Couldn't yesterday and can't today either. Any idea what's going on? I can comment on your posts but can't start a new thread of my own.

That's really scary. I sure hope it starts getting better soon.

Hm. Why can't you post? Weird. I go to Blogger.com and then click the pencil icon to create my new post. Is that the process you usually use? What happens when you go to blogger.com? Do you see that pencil?

Have you been logged into gmail or blogger when you've visited the blog for the past couple of days? If you just to to the blog and are not logged into gmail it will think you are just a visitor and you won't be able to post.

I've just confirmed that you are still an eligible author, so it doesn't look like a problem with your user settings.

I am at http://fitnatics.blogspot.com/

I click on "new post" and that works fine but it won't let me publish it when I'm done. I don't see any pencil icon.

Dad said...

Oh, I see the pencil icon there. On that first page I have always clicked on "view blog" and then "new post" from there. I will try it this way and see what happens.

NOPE! I tried posting this note your way and it that won't work either.

So I am left to the comment section!

Anyway, someone explain this to me please. Yesterday I could hardly walk when I got up. This morning, just fine. It's not the achilles tendon that's bothering me now though, it's in the heel or something. So I ran 3 on the TM this morning and got through it. Heel started to hurt in the last 1/4 mile maybe. Bothering me now some but not terrible. I'm starting to hate this.

I understand the process you were using now. I tired it and clicked Publish and....nothing happened! So I clicked Publish again and it worked. I think deleted that post and tried the entire process (using your method) again and only had to click Publish once. So, I guess, try double clicking.

I can't even understand let alone explain. It's so confusing! I hope they're right and it's feeling so irritated because that is part of the healing process.
