previous 'oh, god' tentatively retracted

kind of think things might not terrible. they still might, of course. but maybe not?

thursday was race-doom-pain-rage day.

friday at lunch i swam. didn't drown. could feel the back of my left leg had protests to make, but it wasn't painful. saturday i did a lot of pilates and core things and generally made a sweaty ass of myself on the back deck. sunday i hustled on the elliptical on an incline for 40 minutes (which is the point at which i lose my impatient mind on that machine, even though i was listening to the awesomest short stories) and then i swam again for 40 minutes. this morning, more yogilates type things with an emphasis on core and stretching. always with the stretching. and throughout, i have heated and stretched, and rolled and iced, as felt right.

every day i just do a little testing things out jog, really lightly. yesterday i felt no pain. today i felt ... eh, something just above no pain. anyway, i'm not running again till thursday. lots more careful exercise tomorrow and wednesday.

on thursday there will some kind of reckoning. there may be a blog post after that. THERE MAY BE SOME ALL CAPS.

gonna try to be calm. ha!

7 weeks to go.
