before it started really….
felt okay this morning….went to my SVAC (Sturgeon Valley Athletic Club) for this morning’s run club, there was only 5 of us, 3 really quick people, 2 not so much…….I felt okay, but as soon as we crossed the street and began to run…I took maybe half a dozen steps, and my back just seized, severe pain, both sides, and I couldn’t get rid of it, and I seriously could not run/move…so I bailed…which really sucked…this is my group…but, must be an old guys problem?…looks like all did the planned 10K and beyond…which was so cool….
I was able to walk/hobble back to my car….decided to drive for a bit, I guess to see if the pain would go away, I drove into the Edmonton River Valley, drove into the parking lot at the Kinsmen, and, well, just getting out of the car hurt..there was no way I was going to be able to run….so just drove home…
It just hurts every time I move…and even just taking a deep breath……
To the couch it is….a heating pad, I’ve rubbed some pain cream on it…hopefully a quiet day, a good sleep tonight, and I’ll be good to go tomorrow…..but where did that come from?
This stuff actually worked!..I think…I didn’t think it would, this bottle actually expired last year, but the back actually feels okay right now, so maybe the Perskindol did the trick…I didn’t take any regular pain killer…so maybe…I’ll have to remember this moment the next time……a wonder drug…or was it the 15 cups of coffee??
I know I’ve had this pain before, a long time ago…I just cannot remember how it cured itself?..it was a result of moving furniture by myself – yes I know I should have known better – and I remember being in such pain that no position, even lying down, helped…..but not a great morning…
I have to hope for a better tomorrow…..and wish this is something that’ll not be on-going..being on the couch is not where I need to be this coming week..I’ve got a lot on my table
I just heard this…stress is us resisting life……wishing for or wanting something you don’t have..and seriously right now, life rocks, except for today……stress comes from not appreciating what is……so I have to keep reminding myself of that…
The pain is gone, I’ve got a pretty good week planned….so, yeah, not resisting life, so that’ll be the plan for this week….
