I’m not 100% yet, but I have made #progress with my recovery and being #fearless this week!
Swim: 5200 yards
I had two really good swims this week. During my second swim, I was able to put some intensity into my swim without any issues with my back. It felt SO good to finally be getting a good workout in! #progress
Bike: 25.9 miles
I had 3 bike rides this week with 2 adding some intensity again…z3, but it was still some intensity! The good news is they were all pain free!
Run: 2 miles
I was finally able to run on Sunday for the first time in over 2 weeks. It wasn’t far, it wasn’t fast, but it was pain free and I was running! I had to stare at the treadmill for a while to build up the courage to finally press the start button, but I’m so glad I did!
Strength Training:
I haven’t had much strength training other than the exercise Dr. Chris has given me and rebuilding some core strength. I am hopeful that this coming week will change all of that and I’ll be able to slowly build my strength training back up again.
Weekly Totals: 5 hours & 15 minutes
Weekly Positives:
Dr. Chris Feil with Team Chiropractic and Rehabilitation and Nick Morton with Vitality Massage worked wonders on me this week! I was finally able to run after more than 2 weeks sans running!
Thanks to the 70+F weather early in the week, I got to dream with my girls about spring/summer!
We had a very special delivery this week…Barnana! Hello #potassiumboost + whole food nutrition!
Tuesday was twin day at school and who better to be my twin, than my #solesister?!?!?!

It is great to read your reports of training “pain free”!! YAY! I understand your hesitation of starting the treadmill….I have been there. Before you hit start, you actually have the HOPE that it will be good. After you start you face the reality of feeling good or just the opposite. Glad you have positive news to report!!!
Thanks Lee! I’m so glad when I stared at the treadmill’s start button that I ended up with a positive result. I was so worried, but it was all for nothing! 😃
I completely understand treadmill fear-I’m so happy for you that it was a successful run!!
Thanks Amy! 💞
