Lordy it's been a shitter of a week. Especially considering that I'm about to work my 12th day in a row, so that shitter week? Extra long.
Tuesday morning, a friend and I decided to try doing a wee jog/walk together. We decided to meet at 6 a.m., which she was nervous about. She asked me to text her at 5:30.
"Good morning! I'm about to go watch the beautiful sunrise!"
A couple of minutes later, as I was putting the I'm a Mean Mommy Pinchey Collar on Margaux, I got a text reply.
"Dude. You are not allowed to be perky."
Fair.
But we did it, and the sun rose by the river as we trotted and chatted and our dogs sniffed beside us. It felt wonderful, but within two hours my heel, the one with the dreaded plantar fasciitis, was hurting badly enough I knew it was too much, too soon. Eff.
But my gym membership is about up, and I'm too broke to buy a new one. I have only one option.
OUCH! Planter fasciitis is really painful. I can't believe you still run with it.
