I was feeling some trepidation about my run yesterday, but it wasn't raining and my foot was just fine, so off I went. Slowly slowly it went. I ran a bit, walked a bit, ran some more, etc etc. At 1/2 mile I stopped for another couple of puffs from my inhaler and then off I went again. By 1 3/4 miles I was feeling ggrrrreat! I did my entire 3 miles, about 2 minutes per mile off my usual pace, but that is to be expected. And am I ever sore today!! I will walk at lunchtime, rest on the weekend and run again on Monday. Hopefully I can do four times next week, but I would be happy with three. I want to work myself up to where I was, four times a week with a day off for knitting. But I don't want to inflame this foot or toe or ankle. So easy does it. But I am super happy. The sun even came out for a bit! And the angels sang - softly.
Today I'm going to do my best to finish up the itinerary. I will book Florence accommodations and do some research into where in Tuscany we should spend the last five days before heading back to Paris. Steve & Ginny went to Tuscany on a wine tasting tour. I should get in touch with them.
Nothing much on for the weekend. A trip to a new (for me) brewery in Woodinville tonight, tomorrow maybe an appointment with the manicurist, and then I'm on my own Sunday through Friday. I need to visit Trader Joe's to stock up on girlie food - spinach & kale pie, chicken meatballs, salad. I should be able to get some good knitting done too. I'd like to get a few hours in on the Jo's Pride and block some things I've got hanging around. Lots on the plate.
