Please forgive my obvious detour from running in that last post. It was at least in the same fitness genre.
So my darn sinuses kept me from running over the weekend. I instead slept most of it away, and lived on a cycle of dayquil - nyquil - dayquil - nyquill. Monday I felt 95% better, and it was a balmy 50-some degrees when I got home from work. So out I went with my roommate.
Goal - 70 minutes. Actual - 65 minutes. [And I admit to taking a few minutes along the way to walk.]
I'm a falling apart people! [Perhaps Wii Fit was on to something after all.]
My knees were giving me fits during my run. And chatting with my friend the physical therapist - she thinks I might have/be developing a bit of tendonitis in my knees. Of course I would be! Tendonitis in my wrists plagued me throughout my cheerleading days. At it's worst flair up the sports medicine people fitted my wrist for an immobilizer. My right wrist. For an entire week.
So I'm following doctor's orders and will be applying ice after my long runs from here out.
Also, I have some major cramping in my left foot. I even passed up on my high heels in favor of ballet flats today. And let's just say the walk from my office to the cafe across the hall.... The thought alone is painful.
Okay - my apologies once again for the complaints filled post. That's sometimes the problem with a blog. I sign in and am given this blank text box to fill with anything I want. Dangerous territory I say!

Meet Wii Fit.
I recently got Wii Fit. And it is hilarious. Really!
So I'm doing my fitness stats.
Age? I'm 26 thank you.
Height? Yep, I'm five feet tall.
Weight? Yea, I get it. [And SO not publishing that to internet!]
Now on to the part where I have to do something. So I stand on the Wii balance board and try to make my center of balance, as indicated by the red dot, match up with a machine. This isn't as easy as it looks people!! Result -- My red dot is like 1.2 centimeters to the right and it asks me if I have troubles walking!
A couple more and it spits out my Wii Fit age.
Drum roll, puh-leeze....
I'm 46.
Oh whatever. I'll show that Wii Fit!!
