I "love" how people ask about putting info on a website on a public forum instead of looking at it or sending the request-to-be-posted information to the webmaster.
Grrrr.

My feet told me not to run or walk today. I rode the lawn tractor instead and cut some of the extra-long grass that grew since last week. Only sneezed a few times.

With substitute Ellen ("stack your weights one on top of the other"). Too much back, not enough warmup for legs, so I started doing my own thing. I really admire all you folks who can do side planks pain-free. I can't even do the standard planks pain-free; need to let my foot/arch heal.

Would have done more at the Y but thought I'd be able to go pick up Glen's car at 1pm that was being worked on, then come home and go for a run or walk from here. But it needed more time, so I came home to take stuff to the transfer station and other errands, then went to get the car around 4pm. Tomorrow, maybe??

Back to Chatham. Good to move some more, although I had several sore muscles from yesterday's Pilates class that interfered today. Now to get my foot healed so I feel like running for training and not just when taped up for races.

Sunday's courses looked really intense! Woo! Concentration required. I've only been on the area west of the pond once, in a previous version of Brown Y. Hope we get to use it more, with permission from the scouts, of course.

Need the get the sleep schedule back on track. :-) Did like the weight report this morning but can't let it go now.

Off to Pilates now.

Pilates class with no added tools. I might skip it on Thursday because Ellen will be subbing. While she was better the 2nd time than the first, I still don't really like her style. Maybe by then I'll be ready for something more strenuous.

A mile on the track. Feet had a number of sore places to start and that was uncomfortable but they felt marginally better by 1/2 mile. Didn't feel like anything else...

...except leg presses, adductors, and pulldowns. Done.

Probably not going to get any exercise in today, either, with a temp of 45 and feels-like temp of 40. AP will probably encourage me tomorrow to get back on track. :-)

I finally got warmed up from yesterday! Have had the equivalent of two grande coffees today and am almost awake.

It was great to see everyone this weekend and hear that the courses were US champs-worthy. I love the orienteering community. Just wish I could have spent more time socializing. That's the trade-off, though, when you put on an A-meet.
