Firstnet911's Group- Closed with a great group (Page 6)

1600 yards in the pool.  Going to be hitting up an "active strecth" class today which I haev never done before but I really need to start stretching more.

Broke 300 minutes of training for the week which is a record for me going back a little ways.

AWESOME!!!!

1200 yards swimming today.  More tomorrow.

The swim challenge for this month has been great!

The running challenge has helped  me a lot too.

1800 yards swimming today over a longer lunch since I wouldn't be able to workout tonight.  Getting tired, but feeling great!

68 minute run with wu and cd today for 7 miles.  Looking at 30 min swim tomorrow and 45 minute trainer ride. 

I was wondering where the other Mentees went.  Time to inspire.

um..................just stopping in to say hi..............................hi!

Dave- you can stop by any time.

Lisa- the foot pain could be from multiple sources. Since this has been going on for a while, I'd consider seeing your doc if it continues.

Do the pain get worse or better the day after?

Too many variables here, but I would consider the shoe theory.  Are the shoes the same make/model that you had before the problem flared up?  I had problems with a particular brand of shoe and don't ever purchase them again because of the way they wore/felt.  Once I changed shoes, I had no issues.

There's a little guy on my son's 5th grade b-ball team and he has a medical condition that he may not outgrow out of and it is something to do with his arches being tight.  He needs to stretch constantly, and once he gets going, he's fine.  This is just an example of something to mention out there.

I would get it checked out, and try a different shoe on the next round.  Have you checked into orthotics?

EEEAAAWWWW, DJ!

Got in a 1300 yard swim at lunch.  Feeling really good, and more "at ease" in the water with today's swim then yesterday's.

Have a great weekend, all!

It actually stays the same most of the day. I do notice that some shoes make it feel better than others - obviously ones with better arch support .  I have a very skinny foot and wore new balance for years since they come in narrows.  Switched over to asics mainly because I went to performance running which doesn't carry new balance.  They are great there - did an analysis and everything.  Liked the asics but - I put a hole in the toe after about 2 months. Now have Nike triax with an insert in.  Not as good as the asics. 

I try to stretch it a lot - maybe ice? Or one of those rolly things.

Good morning group! enjoy the Packer game!!!!!

Packers??  did they play???

Go Pack.

So what does everyone have on tap this week any goals?

Me - I plan to run as many days as I can. I am also subbing for someone this week so I have a heinous week at the gym.  Spin tonight - spin and power yoga tomorrow - 2 spin classes in a row on Wednesday plus total tone that night - Aqua aerobics on Thursday. Friday - collapse.

I plan 45 min on the bike tonight, and will ATTEMPT to begin running tomorrow night to see how the calf holds up.

I never realized I was a runner, untill I coudn't run.

Keep us updated on the leg!
