Remember that slightly strained hip flexor I was complaining about? It's still got me sidelined. It's a week today. I am not impressed. And I believe it is actually an iliopsoas injury. You know how I first injured it and have had trouble ever since? I sneezed when I was pregnant. With Jess. Who is now 19 & 1/2 years old. That's a long time to keep having a recurring injury.
I think I really strained it this time. Usually a couple days rest and I'm good to go again. Never a week! I'm trying so hard to be patient, I really am. But I'm itching to get my running shoes on. I'm thinking I'm going to be very set back in my running. Not as worried about yoga. But, I will wait, all in the name of healing.
It serves me right, I guess. I need to learn not to push. It's ok.
And in typical fashion, I am getting a cold on the day of parent-teacher interviews. It's like a tradition. At least I'm getting a two-fer. I have to rest and not run anyway, hopefully the worst of the cold will be over by the time I'm ready to run again.
Tomorrow we get a half day off, because we work this evening. I do believe I'm going to call the naturopath and see if I can get my B12, immune booster and a vitamin C iv tomorrow afternoon. And maybe a manicure. Because there's no way I'm wasting a precious 1/2 day off!
And maybe, just maybe, I'll call and make an appointment with a physiotherapist. I would love to kick this injury once and for all!
Happy Thursday. Learn from my mistakes--listen to your body!
