March


March was an interesting month.  I started off the month with a new piece of artwork which made the gym something of a challenge.  I hit boxing and kickboxing (barefoot classes) and the elliptical machine with flip flops on!  I managed to lace up my shoes again just in time to run the St Patrick’s Day 5K.  I was slower than dirt, but I did it.  I have a ways to go before I get back to where I was but I am on the right path.  Had another good week and then I started slipping backwards again.  My knees, my ankles, my toes, my shoulders, my wrists and my back (still) hurt.  Right now I am still functioning, I think a lot of it has to do with the whole gluten free route I have been on since January.  I have my good days and I have my bad days (when I am stuck in bed). 

I have my sights set on a couple of races, nothing to dramatic, but I have hope and I am going to fight like hell to make sure I can do them.

The numbers for March were something for me to smile about! I haven’t seen numbers like this in about a year. (July 2012 was mostly bike miles)
