How is your PF?

Cortisone shot into the heel on Wednesday, things seem miraculously better. Should have doen it sooner but I kept waiting for the stretching and self prescribed remedies to work. I'm no fan of doctor's but I finally had to give in. Next up is a set of ortho inserts to see what we can do for the knee, but it isn;t nearly as bad as the heel was. It should be fine, the running doesn't hurt it any more than the lack of running did. I had asked Janyne to leave me off the DL, otherwise my name would have shown up for 8 friggin months.

I'm sorry! I thought that you said that you did not want to be on the DL for the PF.  I guess I should have mentioned the heel spur.  :-(

Good Luck Racers.

Good luck racers! Have a blast and don't forget to smile for the cameras!


I have a few displaced and bruised ribs from a kick I got a few weeks ago in an open water swim race. The bottom two ribs will go back into place but then pop back out if I sneeze, cough, laugh, swim. The only thing they're truly hampering right now is swimming as I can't pull very well with my left arm (ribs on left side) and when I rotate to the right it strains the "muscles" I supposedly have. Oh, and taking deep breaths isn't fun. Other than that the ribs are ignorable!

My husband, on the other hand, is going to have a few broken ribs if he doesn't stop asking if I want ribs for dinner.

I could probably join too, but you can't race and be on the DL list at the same time. Issues with a sore toe (sounds trivial but it sucks to run with one, and transition barefoot really sucks, plus we all know what prolonged time in a bike can do for your toes)--variously diagnosed as a join inflammation and irritated nerve--probably both. Just trying to cut back on running a bit and do everything I can to make it happier until after Worlds.

Attempting to post a few pics from the race last week--not sure it will work....it took ages to attach!

Swim pic is on the way out to the start ("deep water"). I'm about third from right as have just swum in from warmup. You won't be able to find me unless you have REALLY good eyes--sleeveless Pro-motion suit. That is the run finish on the forest service road, and the podium. (Third place has given up and gone home--awards took forever as there were so many categories (also a du and aqua bike for each race).

Not sure if anyone noticed, but the women's swim caps for this event were blue. The men's were pink. Relay was green. I was curious and asked at packet pickup about at (as was afraid I'd gotten the wrong color cap.) One of the organizers said, "We're tired of stereotypes, and anyway we figure most women have lots of pink caps already!" It was very cool passing guys in pink caps for once!

Nice going Karen!

Have had to do the pink cap before due to the race director having some fun with the stereotypes.

If anyone on this long term list wants to be in the weekly DL report, just let me know. My view has been that if (1) I've asked and been told to leave it for now or (2) I see that you are continuing to train even if it's another discipline (for example, run focused instead of tri focused or bike focus instead of run focus, etc) I tend to think that you are dealing with things. I certainly understand the ups and downs of injuries and that sometimes we just need more support than other times.  And that sometimes we need an off season.

Speaking of needing support, consider checking in with Yanti on FB if you get the chance this week.

That's cool, I like the stereotype busting idea. 

I also like your placement on the podium, congrats!!!

I have avoided the cone of death, but I think Hands may be in for some craptastic weather. We're seeing lots of rain and wind, probably until Wednesday.
