It’s funny to me, that you often read about people who stop their work outs while traveling. Now this DOES make sense to me if you are staying at cousin Vinny’s house. I’m willing to bet some pretty good money that…

This not running has been a severe downer for me. As you can tell from the lack of recent posts – I have not been doing much in the exercise/work out department. I can honestly say that I do not…

Back at it! Did you miss me?

So, I have been quite quiet as of late! The good news is that it isn’t due to any unforseen disaster with my Mother in law’s heart surgery. She is doing AWESOME! They kicked her out of the hospital earlier than…

New Shoes! New Shoes!

So last night, I popped in the next DVD for Insanity. The flavor of the day was Cardio Power Resistance! Granted I had a break that Shaun T. hadn’t worked into his schedule, but this one seemed significantly easier than…

So, in theory I am “allowed” to start running again this weekend. The Podiatrist said I could give it a shot. This leaves me running in the “improper” shoes however, and my new (although still not what the podiatrist ordered – it…

Visit with the Podiatrist

Posted on May 3, 2012 by Robinson — 6 Comments

So I posted a brief bit on Facebook about what the podiatrist had to say, but I have been crazy-busy so I wasn’t able to get back here until today. First, I expected one of two (From what I have…

Plantar Faciitis status report

I’ve been quiet lately, as using an elliptical isn’t terribly interesting to write about. The only good thing I can say about it, is that I am catching up on my Battlestar Gallactica episodes. If I continue with how I have…
