the coolest ice cream maker we've seen yet
Monday I ran the Run Long and Prosper virtual 5k to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Star Trek.
I actually planned on running this race last week, but I hurt my foot and decided it was a better idea to let my foot rest.
How did I hurt my foot? River left a book on the stairs.
I knew it was there, but not exactly where it was, so when my foot came down on it, my foot rolled outward as I tried to keep my balance. Since I was holding Ocean, it was imperative that I not lose my balance and fall. Well, I didn't fall, but my foot sure hurt. I iced it, applied arnica gel liberally, and elevated it. My foot didn't swell or turn purple, so I figure there was no major damage. It was tender all the first day and a bit sore still the second day, but it feels fine now.
I completed the race on the treadmill. I walked the first .5 mile, ran the next 1 mile, walked .5 mile, and ran the final 1.1 mile. I completed 3.1 miles in 49:55, which is not a great time, but decent for a treadmill race. I always feel like I run a lot slower on the treadmill, and this race confirms that thought.
Because I hurt my foot my mileage was a lot lower last week.
Last week's mileage:
Monday- I remembered my Garmin when we went to Fredericksburg Battlefield, and it reported that we walked 1.82 miles.
Friday- I walked 2.68 miles on the treadmill. My foot felt fine, but my body felt tired and heavy. I have not been getting enough sleep and it showed.
