Time to get back in the saddle!

I had a self imposed 8 weeks rest after San Jose.
I hurt my leg on September 1st and foolishly plugged on training for the October race with shin splints.
Oddly enough they were not too hurtful until after I tapered.
Little Man had a Walkathon a week later, I laced on my shoes planning to do at least 2 miles with him and after lap 4 all he!! broke loose.
I was in wicked pain and every step I took burned in my lower leg. Mrs Two Half Marathons had to be helped to the sidelines by two 5th Graders.

Verdict per MD, REST!


8 weeks became 12 weeks and I'm ashamed to say I only walked once, a week ago.

Meanwhile, fliers are coming to the house for a new season of Team in Training.
I signed up with a nutritionist, am going back to the gym and I'm shopping for warmer gear.
All that before the New Year.

Go me!
