Glad you got an official diagnosis. I hope the orthotics help. And I second whoever said aqua jogging. I know someone who couldnt run for about 6 weeks before her HIM and aqua jogging really helped her out with the running. |

Elite ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() I'm having a lonely weekend too but it will be busy. Well, my wife is out of town but just overnight and I definitely won't be by myself. Tonight I have the teen girls basketball finals. Tomorrow I have the last of the teen boys' games before they start their playoffs on the 7th. Then a family gathering, pay bills and work on the car. Reading about everyones races is getting me excited for April when the races will start. |

Glad you're feeling a little better... any news on your cat coming back?? AwooOOOoooOOOOO nope. But I live in hope. Poor Lisa Labradog is beside herself. Suicide was her Sidekick and she feels as if this is all her fault. Well, she should. 'Twas her cat and she should have been keeping an eye on her!!! |

Well, not great news but i'm glad it's nothing more serious! Orthotics should help. Make sure you follow break-in instructions to the letter when you get them. As for your closing question: ==> AQUAJOGGING. Hmm aquajogging... I was thinking stair stepping. What are everyone's thoughts? |

I know someone who couldnt run for about 6 weeks before her HIM and aqua jogging really helped her out with the running. Alll right, I will consider aqua jogging. Provided you have some run fitness to begin with (clearly you do), aquajogging or deep-water running is a nearly-identical replacement for running itself. This is not my opinion, or anecdotal, although I've subbed aquajogging to a considerable degree for running in training for several marathons. There are thousands of stories like mine (anecdotal), but then many high-profile case studies of elite and pro runners and triathletes, and then some really good exercise physiology studies, peer-reviewed and published. It's what coaches make runners who can't run do. |

I would have to try it out. |

Royal(PITA) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Melissa, I think the belt depends on the depth of your pool. ie....my gym pool is 5 foot deep all across. In order to aquajog without touching the bottom of the pool I must wear a belt. (I also have aero boobs so there is no bouyancy factor there)
why oh why can't I have an aero arse?? |

Melon Presser ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Yep, Melissa ... sans belt is better, but depending on the water you're working with, may need a belt. Let me see if I can dig up some good links/resources for you ... Judi, aero arse is no good trying to pump it up a hill. You need junk in your trunk for that. And swim flotation if you have aeroboobs Today was a bit of a wash, but so be it. In my case better to take it easy and do what I can, building slowly slowly. Surfer piglet St. Jim of the Mountain (the gecko rescuer) pulled up at my house to get me to come to Sundowners and actually got me out of bed, saying I'd feel better if I went. He was right |

why oh why can't I have an aero arse?? I will take 1 aero torso please! I don't mind my non-aero arse because it's mostly muscle. *clenches butt, and thighs for good measure* |

He was right It's always better to get out of the house. Glad you had a good time. I will check out the waters... I admit, it's been longer than I can remember since I was last in the pool. I'm a bad triathlete! |
