patience

I have learned a lot since April. I thought I was a patient person and I am most days but in all reality, sometimes I just wish things would go faster. Since April 10th, my right leg has "let me down" when it comes to running. I completed the sprint triathlon the following month only to know the pain that my leg would be in following the event. Since May 2nd, there has be absolutly zero running. Not eve a tenth of a mile. I have been icing, foam rolling, and pt to my body. This week was my starter week. I felt much better and wanted to test the waters. I started with a mile run on wednesday and felt so great. I think I was the happiest person in the gym that day. I know my smile showed it. It was slow and I made sure my form was very good. Then yesterday I ran a bit more. I wanted to keep going but I am learning to be patient with myself and not do too much of one thing. I am really excited to start to now look for races in the late summer. I feel like I have turned the corner and now Im ready to start bumping up the workouts.
On another note, this past week has been very busy for me. I thought it was just monday yesterday? Of course it wasnt. Daniel and I spent most of Thursday together and went to this new place to eat for lunch. It is a small shack in gboro and my bbq sandwich was amazing. The french fries were super hot and good and Daniel liked his food too. Then we went to Mexico for dinner. It was the first time we went there. We normally go to another mexican place but decided to try this one out. Note to self... dont mess with a good thing.
Then yesterday I went to Durham to visit Grandma, Tony, and Charity. Grandma made us lunch and also amazing strawberry shortcake. Time flew there! Before I knew it, it was 4pm! Ekk! The traffic is never any good in the evening so I had to scoot out of there. I then headed over to Val's to get some work done and spend some time there before they had dinner.
