Tomorrow, I return to the trainer's office, to have a check up on my tendonitis issue in my lower medial right leg.
As aforementioned, I have been taking 9 Advil per day, along with icing and cross training and no running. Now what remains is that strange tightness, or twitches that saturate my daily endeavors. Though the load bearing exercises no longer hurt to perform, which is satisfying.
I have a great obligation on Friday and Sunday. Sunday marks the final 20 miler before Boston. I know it must be done. Friday, although no less important, is more of a personal endeavor with someone special. I have chosen to take this beautiful day, as an off day. Saturday too, will also be an off day. I intend on visiting home that day.
On a separate note, I found the following list quite enjoyable. I have posted it for your pleasure.
10 Signs You Are Becoming A Triathlete
1. You eat so much that all your friends think you have a tapeworm.
2. You sleep 10 hours a night and still need a 1-2 hour nap in the afternoon.
3. You have a hard time finding a group to ride with on the weekends because the “A” group is too fast but the “B” group doesn’t go far enough.
4. Happiness is riding or running until you’re tired, sore, exhausted and can barely walk.
5. You become neurotic, cranky, and borderline psychotic on rest weeks and a monster during the taper.
6. You feel like you’re undertrained if you’re not doing at least 2 workouts a day, and 3 is better.
7. You annoy all your coworkers by insisting on taking the elevator up 1 floor because you want to “rest your legs.”
8. When waiting in line at the grocery store, you casually stretch your quads, calves, and hamstrings.
9. A 20 mile bike, 4 mile run, and power weight session has become a nice, little workout.
10. Your resting pulse and blood pressure have dropped so low you have to take a long time to stand to avoid passing out.
