Hey...I am good. rested for a few days for my ouchies. Ran an easy 4 on Thursday and did an 8 mile trail run yesterday. Lifted today. feeling pretty good for an old girl. We have another race on June 11th so I treated this week like a reverse taper. We will do a few long weekend runs and then taper down again.
Saw my foot guy on Wed. I am over pronating past what my orthotics can handle so he is making me a new pair. It is causing my feet, particularly my big toes and the tops of my feet to hurts. It only started about 6 weeks ago, so I think we caught it pretty early. Hopefully the new orthotics will help. I had planned to step up to longer trail races next year, but if the increased mileage is going to exacerbate this problem, I will stay with shorter races. Not worth doing long term damage at this age.
I have too many retirement plans.
Oak, I am glad you are getting the care your pelvis needs.
