Walked with Kristi again today. This time I cranked up the treadmill to Level 10. Buns of steel, here I come!

I started to run with Sherene at the gym but two things stopped me:
- My neck still really hurts.
- I wore the wrong bra. I dang near gave myself two black eyes.
So I walked on the Level 9 hill program on the treadmill and had a really nice long stretch. And now, I shall seek out more Advil…

Dang Neck May 13, 2008

I slept on my neck wrong this Saturday while cuddling with my 4-year-old. (For those of you with kids, you know the scene: Super cute child falls asleep on you while you’re in a position that becomes very uncomfortable. Yet, you don’t dare move for fear of waking super cute child. Your last thought as you doze off is, “This is gonna hurt when I wake up.”
This morning is definitely the worst. I can’t get my neck muscle to relax. I can barely get my hair in a pony tail (I can’t look down) and my shoulders feel like they’re in my ears. I went for my morning walk with Kristi hoping it would help loosen things up some, but there really isn’t a noticeable difference. I think I’ll try and go to the back-cracker, er I mean, Chiropractor today. The heat I’ve been using on it doesn’t seem to help, except to ease the aching.
I think it’s also time to break out my good old friend Advil too. Gotta love Advil.

Had my little walk with Kristi this morning. Did hill level 8 on the treadmill. I have been able to successfully avoid the eliptical-head-basher-thingies for a while now.

I’m beginning to enjoy these walks with Kristi in the morning, especially after a hard day like yesterday. It really helps me get the stiffness from the day before out. I did the hill program at level 7.
I am noticing some interesting “heat” in my right shin (I’m such a horse nerd, I wanted to say “cannon” at first). It literally gets warm (even to the touch) just to the left of my shin bone about 3/4 of the way up. I started some cold compresses and my “Just-Say-No-To-Shin-Splints” exercises. We’ll see if it nips that one in the bud. No tenderness, which is good.
It’s going to be gorgeous tomorrow– I hope I can get to the barn to torment the pony before the rain comes.

Walked with Kristi this morning:
- 15 minutes on the eliptical (reverse x-train)
- 30 minutes on the treadmill, Level 8 hill workout at 3.0 mph
This time I used a machine without moving arm thingies. MUCH safer!
