Walking and Thinking

Thursday,  June 16th,   11 a.m.

 

I’m  Walking-

Just returned from a 30-minute quick walk around the neighborhood. Experiencing no discomfort in my lower left foot plantar fasciitis injury. Still stretching, massaging and rolling my lower legs. My calves do feel a lot more loose and comfortable. This is probably an effort I should have made a long time ago to be more attentive to this area. So the road back continues as I conclude the first goal of my plan to walk without pain. Monday I will return to water activities and biking and zero gravity running.

I’m  Thinking-

I am well aware that the soreness in my foot is a direct result of my decision to be a runner. I am very fortunate that I do not have serious health issues at this stage of my life, which is  well + 70.  I occasionally reflect upon my writing this blog and hear a guy whining about stuff he could avoid by just not running.  Then I remember how much running for the last 4 years has elevated my health and quality of life.  So, I go on about the highs and lows of my running experience.  I hope people who choose to look on my blog find some of it interesting, and in some cases helpful, or in the best-case inspiring.

Your thoughts will help me become a better blogger!

I am thankful to all who have read and responded.
