Kudos to you for still getting up at 5am to get those workouts in, even though you've had to make a lot of modifications.

I often try to #findaway with all my injuries and different body part recoveries. we have to do this to stay mentally balanced too! so kudos for doing just that!! <br /><br />I had yet another week "off" but I got the cortisone shot in my foot so I'm hoping this means my worries are soon over. All I want to do is run!! I feel like the Half in Dublin goal is going to have to change again. Only 3 weeks left and I don't have any run over 15K yet (and that was even broken up in 10K and 5K after a 5K bike ride...). Sigh. <br /><br />I'm already thinking of #alltheraces I'm going to run next year. Next year is truly going to be my year :)Reneehttp://www.lowfatpie.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5884362622170497685.post-29965487168482188802017-07-24T20:20:15.711-05:002017-07-24T20:20:15.711-05:00You are so inspiring.
