How could I get a shorter distance when I’m actually running _more_?
Whatevs. Running is nice. We are still pain-free and it is great. I’m gonna continue with the c25k to steadily build me up to previous levels of orsm and avoid injury. It’d be frustrating, if it weren’t for the fact that both my podiatrist and I are amazed that (with dodgy foot) I’m actually _walking_ without pain, let alone running. I am made of strongs, I think. :D

A nice walk after NO EXERCISE the last week.

Still feeling the lack of fitness. Wonder if I have been battling a cold or something as I still feel a bit flat. Boo. In other news, the knees are rockhardawesome and I continue with the sixtyfivezillion strengthening exercises. I can safely say that I owe any mobility at all to the millions of exercises I do every day for my foot and knees.

Doing the first run of c25k with a friend who’s starting and wanted company. Not sure I’m any good at running with other people – I don’t like the way it distracts me from my own rhythm. Even though the company was nice.
Knees are *knock on wood* feeling GREAT. But I’ve had about enough of this snot – it’s making me tiiiiiired.
happy birthday nikola tesla
It was Nikola Tesla’s birthday yesterday and I missed it.
Last year I wrote this poem for him:
Happy Birthday, Nikola Tesla,
inventor of alternating current,
unfortunately not
a pro-rock-n-roll wrestler,
but still: fully sick,
Nikola Tesla.

Feeling fatigued from constant allergy issues… wonder if I actually have a cold? Either way: boo to lack of energy.
But it’s still very nice to be out and running/walking about regularly again. Still no knee pain, so feeling pretty optimistic about returning to proper running. Might continue with c25k til end, though, as I like the structure.

Lots of fun, lots of intense dancing. Sore knees the next day, but not in a major way. We’ll see how thing shape up on Monday.

chilly and rainy, but: new tracksuit pants! Had to fang it to catch the lights and nearly kicked my own arse. No aches in the bodgy foot, no knee pain, nothing but persistent allergy snot (which is NOTHING!).
