I just got back from my LAST visit of physical therapy here in Worcester, and hopefully my last visit to ANY physical therapy in my life. It was a bit bittersweet, I've come to love the ladies, and today's visit was no exception. I did feel a bit like a circus monkey today because Patti was putting me through lots of extra test to send a report back to my surgeon in Maine, so that when I see him next Thursday, he can make an educated decision about my approved activities!
As for running updates/news
1) I just found out that one of my very good friends is going to be running the Bay State Marathon with Kayla in the fall, with hopes of qualifying for Boston. This fellow runner is keeping their registration and ambitions on the down low, so they shall remain nameless until further notice!
2) I've officially signed up for a 10k in Freeport in the middle of June, and I will tentatively be doing another 5k in Augusta a few weeks after I get home, once the woman emails me back!
3) I'm considering the possibility of moving up the date of my half marathon. There is actually one in Oakland to benefit the Harold Alfond Center for Cancer Care on July 11. It goes around a route that I can easily run on this summer to prepare, but I still haven't decided if I want to sign up or not! Only the first 100 paid registrants receive a t-shirt..and you all know how I feel about tshirts...
As for life in Worcester.. when I left PT, the sun was shining, much different than the horrible humid overcast weather that we woke up to this morning. We now have both fans going in our room, and it is still as humid as ever..I can't wait to see what the fitness center will be like when I run later..
