Those waffles look great! I'm totally going to try that recipe out as soon as I go to the grocery store :)...I may go tonight! I have a couple of Go Lean Blueberry waffles in the freezer....and a banana I need to eat...all I need is some greek yogurt. Grocery store, here I come!

everyone - thanks for your deep concern! i really appreciate your wise words and am NOT going to run today. i have something else planned, though :) of course! two days of rest is unheard of.

twinsky - i was wondering if anyone else noticed that!!! LOL.

I wanted to echo what others have been saying -- don't go running today!! if you are still hurting that's just going to make it worse and irritate it further so that it'll be worse for your 15k. i know you want to get some movement, but you just need to give it the rest of the week to heal before your big weekend. if you really need to do something, maybe try the elliptical since it's no impact, although i think just taking the next couple days off fully would be best.

Love the banana cloud idea!

Aw, hope everything gets better for you before this weekend!

Have fun at din-din - sounds like you 3 are a blast :)

2008-09-25T10:32:00.000-04:00

Very interesting about the lactic acid! I love learning more about how my training can actually change the way my body works. Give me that mitochondrial mass!

Oh, and an important message from my Internal Stern Motherly Voice: trying to run if you're still feeling pain is not a test and won't improve your fitness-- it will just delay healing and may make a minor injury major! I know you know that but my Stern Motherly Voice is still grumbling. :)

2008-09-25T10:02:00.000-04:00

that was such a great explanation! thank you! I'm a runner and was still under the impression that lactic acid = evil. And something about eating bananas to make it go away?? who knows. Anyway, thanks for the info!

2008-09-25T09:51:00.000-04:00

Can you take my exam for my advanced nutrient metabolism class?!

How funny is it: This afternoon we finish up glycolysis in class! I put my studying on my blog about our first carbohydrate types and some pathway stuff as I studied this morning! ( you totally motivated me to study more!)

SOOOO Sorry to hear about your calf/foot... Did you see a doctor? Can you walk okay? Have you iced and taken more anti-inflammation stuff ? Did you do something specific that you remember hurting it?

I would rest it as much as possible so you do not further injure it at the 15k.

If you workout today/this week I would think biking would be a better option than running- less weight strain on your calf...more healing power!

I'm hoping you pull through it!

2008-09-25T09:47:00.001-04:00

so if it is plantar fasciitis, the heel is a little misplaced for the pain (usually more towards the arch). It will be worse first thing in the morning usually, too. They have a sock that can help (for some reason the wright sock sticks in my head) which keeps your foot in a specific position while you sleep. I shouldn't really be giving advice--Honestly, best thing to do is get a correct diagnosis. from a doctor ;-)

I thought those were melted marshmallows on your waffles at first! I guess that shows where my head is! Haha!
(Sorry about the evite confusion! I forgot that my evite account doesn't use my blog e-mail...)

2008-09-25T08:51:00.000-04:00

anon - funny you should mention that, because i had another reader email me the same comment this AM! :) i really appreciate your help trying to decode what the heck is wrong with my foot.

however, i looked up my symptoms online and do not think i have plantar fascitis (thank god). the pain is only in a portion of my heel and is mostly centered around my calf MUSCLE. thank goodness!

that's awesome to hear you've ran a marathon! congrats!

2008-09-25T08:49:00.001-04:00

You might have plantar fasciitis kicking in with the heel. I had that. The best thing to do, other than seeing an orthopedic doctor if it keeps up, is to lay OFF of it. Ice it, stretch, take Advil, but DONT run. Cross train until the race and you may have a shot of running pain free. I ran a full marathon on almost a month of cross training due to my heel acting up.

2008-09-25T08:49:00.000-04:00

Your breakfast looks so good - I love the look of the "banana clouds"! but I just can't bring myself to like bananas. :( I hope your start feeling better so you can get back to runnin!

I ALMOST MADE THE SAME RANDOM THING! I have a little yogurt in my fridge I want to use up so I thought about mixing it with pb and then putting it over my bananas n waffles. But then I forgot to bring it to work.

how random!

anyway, can you ask FH if acupuncture can help with carpal tunnel syndrome + ankle injuries? I have both and need some kind of relief!!!! any advice would be appreciated!
