Guest guest Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 my goals for this year is to walk 1000 miles and part of that is to do 2 volkswalks a month. Yesterday I did 2 miles to practice and as I was leaving work I felt a POP in the back of my heel and man did it hurt. It has been good for a while but this was worse than it ever was before.Well stupidly I was not goingto let it interfere in my plan.This morning I dragged Hank with me (actually he wouldn't let me go alone, Thank GOD) and we went to Huntsville.Well they do not have a 5k walk just the 10k but I said let's go for it. I made the first 2 hours fine but then as I stepped off a curb to cross the street, POP again. I almost went down right in the middle of the road. I kept going, (why are all these walks uphill????)Then we came to a place where we needed to go left and around for about another 2 miles but we were really only 2 blocks from the car to our right. Hank said enough and he went for the car and I limped through the campus for another 3 blocks so it would qualify as a campus walk for AVA.So 2 hours, 5 miles, lots of pain but I did the best I could do. Not only my left heel, but also my bad left knee is killing me and I think I sprained my right foot under the toes. Wah wah wah. Enough whining, but I don't thinkI will be doing another 10k walk this month. "Just Doin' it" Grammy PatYTD_ 22.85 miles It's not that some people have willpower and some don't. It's that some people are ready to change and others are not.– Gordon, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 Grammy Pat, I know you set a goal for yourself. BUT...be careful and not push yourself too far to reach your goal. You may have to rest that heel and knee for a few days, we do not want you injured. I know you are disappointed, but you did above and beyound and we are proud of you.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2006 Report Share Posted January 15, 2006 Thanks for the cautions everyone. I don't feel as bad as I thought I would today. I was planning on doing another 5k this coming weekend. I'll see what happens this week. Hank will kill me if I even bring it up. I just want to get under 300 before the end of the month. Back in November I saw 303 and in 2 months I am still not there. But I have had another good week so there will be a loss come Monday night.
