Day Eighty Six - REST DAY

Yeah, it's kinda soon for a rest day, but hey, take it from me; If you are in pain, especially in your legs, I don't care what fitness person out there tells you to push it, DO NOT PUSH IT!!!  Meaning, if your legs or especially your knees, are in pain, stay off of it.  Go easy and sure as heck, don't go running/walking!  This morning, my leg was aching really bad, not just like a regular ache, but I'm talkin I felt tension from my knee down to my foot.  It hurt if I put too much pressure on it.  I woke up this morning, got my gear on, was just about to head out the door, when I felt the pain.  It was hard walking around quick this morning, so once I really felt it while trying to tie my shoes, I knew that I needed to hang back today and let it heal up.  That's what I did.

Throughout the day, my leg felt sore!  I don't know why, or how it happened.  Maybe it was the walk yesterday.  I don't know, but I am going to take it easy tomorrow.  I'm not going to walk too fast.  Hopefully it's all better because I don't want to take another rest day.  I didn't really wanna take one today, but I knew I needed to because of the pain I was feeling.  When I'm on my way home, on that last mile (6th mile) my legs feel pretty tired and my feet, oh man, they feel super tired.  It feels so good to stretch and sit down, once I get back home.

Well, not much to report today!  Just that I didn't do my walk.  Now that it's dark, I can report that my leg does feel a bit better. Tomorrow, we shall see.  Goodnight!
