Rebuilt to Run Another Day
Posted by Keri on May 10, 2011 · 4 Comments
With six weeks to go until the Seattle Marathon, the miles are starting to add up, and so are the aches and pains. To be quite honest I didn’t think that I would be able to do my long run this morning, but after being poked and prodded by my friend Daryl and a fantastic taping job by Norm, I was given a cautionary all clear to run.
This was my first taping experience so I watched and learned. Norm sprayed my foot with Tuff Skin to ensure that the tape would stay in place throughout my long run (Ever wonder how those gymnasts never seem to get wedgies when they are wearing those high cut leotards? I think that I my need to add a can of this to my beach bag!). I was really surprised how much support some strategically placed athletic tape gave me.
So better late than never, Conny and I hit the trails for what would be the greatest find day ever…
Hopefully the owner of this orange "off-site work crew" onesie was just warm...yikes!
My ankle and foot held up, but my finger is pretty close to the eject button.
It has not been all that warm out – yikes is right! Sorry to hear of your aches and pains – you are wise, and are in great hands! I hope your recovery from this long run is going well.
Is that a jail guy outfit?
That’s what we were thinking!
