They say patience is a virtue, something I tend to lack when it comes to listening to my body when injured. It has been almost 1 week without running, just focusing on yoga and circuit training with weights. My right foot has been "tingling" and "burning" on and off since the Austin 1/ 2 marathon in February. I completed a steroid pack last week with little relief.
Next step is going back to my primary physician and seeing what step to take next. I am still planning on running in the 10K race on the 28th this month, but I know that not being patient and pushing may cause more damage. I would appreciate happy thoughts and prayers that my foot starts to heal! :)
In the meantime, come and join me in yoga! I am becoming a regular again at Blue Tree Yoga off Spring Street studios, http://www.bluetreeyoga.com/ . It is a new/old challenge and has kept up my spirits without my endorphin rush from running. I hope everyone is doing well and have a blessed Easter Sunday!
