Day 19

 

Today was a walking day. I was so tired from the big day yesterday that I did the first little bit with my eyes closed but by the time I saw the sun I was moving better. 

I fought a headache much of the day and had to take my serious medicine. 

I saw the mountain bike guy 3 times but he was ahead of me each time. 

By the late afternoon big storms hit and much of the pressure in my head went away. 

We went to the gym, the whole family. 

I did weights and finished out the time playing the shark game on the rowing machine. 

Then home to make a pretty good corn chowder and do my Pilates. 

My feet hurt. 

Tomorrow is a running day and we are entering a week of rain. 

I haven’t had to do that much yet. 

I think I have my rain gear sorted. 

As a bonus expenditure I have purchased some toe shoes. 

The first time I got plantar fasciitis was years and years ago. At that time the Born to Run book was just peaking and barefoot shoes were all the rage. I got some at a hiking store because the guy said they might clear up my foot pain. 

They actually did, or it went away anyway.

So I ordered a cheap Chinese pair from amazon and we shall see. 

They came today and I wore them to the gym. 

Tomorrow is day 20. 

I feel like I have a good chance of finishing the 30 day Pilates challenge. 

Woo!

I wasn’t much in the mood for water today but I did about 55oz. 

Plus keifer and v8 and green tea. 

So I’m still hydrated but didn’t do great on the water.
