My return to physical therapy after the MRI results was better than I expected. I’ve run 18 miles in the last four days and I’m more “motivated” to keep up with my physical therapy exercises. We’re reducing the schedule down to 1 time per week, just to monitor progress.
I do, however, need to add a couple of my stretching routines back in.
I also woke up early this morning to do 3.0 miles in 29:30 (9′50″ pace). Day 30 of the running streak, day 7 of the physical therapy exercise streak.

- Streak day 13 #twit2fit Ended up on the treadmill, as the thunder crashed as my Garmin synched. Lucky for me, because a few minutes later, while on the treadmill, pea-sized hail started falling outside. I probably would have been a half-mile out at that point. 3.6 mile in 35'47" for 9'57". 13 day streak. ......
- Medium run, up-tempo last 3 miles #twit2fit Streak day 48, 6.73 miles in 1:00:11 (8:57 pace). I decided to do a little up-tempo work for the last 3 miles of my run today, in preparation for Johnny's 5k. Nearly four miles into the run, I went for a target of 8:00-8:15 pace for the last three miles,......
- MRI results and streak day 24 #twit2fit Ok, so I had an MRI yesterday, and it shows that I have a bulging disc between L4 and L5. Running doesn't hurt and things seem to be getting better, although slowly. We'll see what physical therapy brings. I believe I'm going to be avoiding anything that resembles a sit-up......
