Last week's goals: Run if it works out. Don't if it hurts.: WIN - ran 3x, and it felt ok. Swim x 3 - WIN
Bike x 3 - WIN
Core/strength x 4 - WIN
Foam roll x 4 - WIN
20-25min runs on Tues, Thurs & Sun worked out ok, despite it starting to snow and getting locked in the deep freeze. Would have run Saturday but we had errands to take care of then went and checked out Ripley's Aquarium with a bunch of friends, and by the time we got home it was almost 10pm and -13c/9f with a ridiculous windchill.
This week's goals: Run x 4 Swim x 4 Bike x 4 Core/strength x 4 Foam roll/rehab x 4
I think I ended up with a bit of SI joint dysfunction from the whole hamstring business, so I've started doing the exercises my chiro gave me the last time my SIJ went wonky. It seems to be responding, and I've been able to run the last 2 days in a row plus put in an hour on the trainer both of days while my leg/hip still continues to improve. I just need to remember to take it easy stretching it, as I can make it sore again pretty quickly by pushing it too far - no surprise, as that's how it happened to begin with, but I'm used to having pretty good flexibility so it's an adjustment in mindset for me.
Cheers!
