Non-turkey trottin'

As I sit here on this Thanksgiving evening, I'm reading about what everyone is thankful for. I will add to that by saying that I'm thankful to all of my marathon contributors, my ability to go out for a run today and for organizations like Livestrong and St. Jude's for all they do for cancer patients and their families. It has been a while since I have posted and do have updates. Seems my foot problem was some pretty severe plantar fasciitis. I exited the doctor's office with a nice pair of crutches to help me get around. He told me to rest, which I did probably a little too well. I wasn't able to ride a bike or run for more than a week, well, until today. Today was my first run since the half marathon. I ran a little more than three miles and it wasn't pretty. Between my stack of French toast this morning & my gluttony during my injury time, it became a tough run. Top that with the humidity and heat here in Florida. You heard me, Florida. My parents are snowbirds so this year Thanksgiving is in sunny Florida. It's nice to have sunny and warm weather, but the humidity is tough. My foot did hurt near the end of my run, but I didn't push it. With some ice, rest and my Naproxen, I should be good for my Saturday Santos ride in Ocala. I hope all of my readers have had a great Thanksgiving and if you're traveling, that you have safe trips!
