214.1 this morning. Slight increase from Friday. Not worried.
YOU GUYS I WANT TO TELL YOU SOMETHING.
For years, my weak point has been my left knee. It has dislocated three times. The last time, I had months of PT. I've been on crutches, I've lost work. I've been depressed due to feeling like I couldn't support myself because I couldn't walk.
Today, I did not complete my 5k because ... blisters!
This is exciting. It's happened twice now, so I'll want to think about how to prevent it. Yes, I'll do the appropriate self-care and work on it. Maybe new shoes.
But that's not the point: something other than my weak knee is preventing me from completing an athletic event!
And that's the point: the thing that has stopped me from walking is no longer the weak point. This is a big psychological moment.
