Good things:
- I got my sweat on today! Woot! Scott brought his trainer over and put my bike on it. So for 31 glorious minutes, I sweated my ass off in my living room, on my road bike, with my boot on, without any leg pain. It was great! It is amazing how much better I feel about myself and life when I get a little endorphin fix every day.
- I did pilates 6 times this week. If I could control myself with the blizzards, you might actually be able to see abs.
- My leg has felt fine in the boot (no pain) two different days. Unfortunately not two days in a row. Today. And Friday. Yesterday there was a little pain. The doctor told me to come back and see her when I have no pain in the boot. I guess I should have asked how many days in a row. Fingers crossed it continues to improve. Now that I have a sweat alternative, I should be able to deal with the boot and no running for a bit longer.

Yeah!!!
Have you tried pool running? It is super boring but works really well to stay in killer shape with a stress fracture.
Not yet. But I was just reading about it last week and plan to try it soon. The stuff I was reading made me wonder why I haven’t already been doing it as a supplemental workout to my normal road running – it sounds like SUCH a good workout and so good for you (easy on joints/pounding).
