It's Been Awhile

I haven't posted much on here for a while...mostly because, about a week after my last post, i came down with a case of Achilles Tendonitis. And a month later, after training on it relentlessly, I developed a case of Chronic Achilles Tendonitis. And now, 3 months after that, I'm still rehabbing. It's looking more and more like I'll be using my redshirt season this year.

On the bright side, I've been getting a lot of quality time down at the pool. I never thought I'd utter the sentence "I aquajogged for 90 minutes today," but now those words have truthfully left my lips. Luckily, there's a small legion of injured athletes on the team, so there's hardly ever a shortage of people to jog with. Still, it's dissapointing because this is my favorite time of year to run. The weather has been simply beautiful of late, which makes it all the more frustrating.

I'll try to be on in a couple of weeks to descrbie how my rehab progresses, but until then, keep running. unless your achilles starts hurting, in which case, learn from my mistake and take a week off.
