Injuries

Self diagnosis sometimes more useful

I couldn’t get the swelling in my leg to come down completely so I payed the $25 copay to go see my family doctor. She’s not a sports medicine doctor and she basically only confirmed that she didn’t think it was a blood clot. She did recommend I do Physical Therapy for the injury. Probably [...]

And the Injury takes a wierd turn

My leg was feeling a little better this morning. I decided to keep the knee brace on, but allow myself to walk a little more normally. I even took the stairs, although very slowly. I can’t bring myself to taking the elevator just one floor at work. My leg was feeling good. A couple twinges [...]

How to do Junathon with an Injury and Giveaway Winner

Some of the Cast

Miriam the Filly Runner
I'm a 28 year old ex-Northeastern-rower who is finding a new love for physical fitness in the form of running. I love running long distances (even aiming for Ultramarathons) on both road and trail. I've toyed with barefoot but mostly go with the minimalistic shoes. I may not be very fast, but I'm enjoying competing against myself. I'm Canadian but love living in New Hampshire with my hubby, and our Poodle and cats. When not running, I'm usually being a nerdy engineering type.

Cooper the Blonde Poodle
Cooper, who's registered name is French Fries and Gravy, is a 1 year old Cream Standard Poodle (he's on the small side of his breed). He thinks that living with two runners is fantastic, as long as he gets to tag along. His longest run to date has been 22 miles off leash, so he probably did significantly more than that. Coop's non-running adventures are often documented in my other blog Life with a Blonde Poodle.
