Today's Plan: run with A set of 7day
As I have mentioned before, we are putting in a wood stove this year. The best place for the chimney to go was up through the bathroom closet. On the upside, the bathroom floor will never be cold again with the stove right underneath it. Blissful.
I had to clean out the closet so we could take the shelving down before cutting holes in the floor and ceiling. While I was doing so I found that most of my first aid supplies had expired. And my band aids were all yucky. Either too sticky or not sticky enough. Why is this important?
I'm a klutz. I came by it naturally: my Dad had an ankle that threw him down repeatedly and he could make a glass of water set in the middle of a table fall over when he walked by. My Mom is worse. She and I have multitudes of little cuts and scrapes that appear from seemingly nowhere.
It was inevitable that I would fall while running I guess.  I was having a fabulous run, really feeling the groove. I am, however, not used to running on a frozen road. And I was watching where I was going, not  looking down at my feet. So when the rock I tipped my toe on didn't give, I went down.
I hit on my hands and knees, then managed to roll and hop up. I like to think I looked like one of those action stars rolling across the floor to avoid being shot. Unfortunately, I rather doubt it. The moral of this story? Always have a box of band aid on  hand. I had to wait until I got to work.
I did run the rest of the way home, it really didn't hurt very much. And the second day of my 7 day plan went much better. I was able to focus on doing the moves properly since I a frame of reference on how to do them. Still made me sweat!
