Sad to read that Jay Medicine Hat left the world yesterday, falling in a Wal Mart and suffering head trauma. The local comedian was funny and irreverent and one of my favorites, if you’d ever seen him you’ll know the world has less laughter in it today and that is not a good thing.
I’ll fess up that I was a bit premature pronouncing I was ready to run again. The single 3 miler last week conjuring the pain right back up. This morning I started ASTYM with my preferred physical therapists in Omaha- Alegent Lakeside Physical Therapy, thanks for the good work Jarad. I’m committed to 2 more weeks of treatment and no running, hopeful that resolves the little nastiness in my heel. Meanwhile I swam 1700 meters yesterday and biked 25 miles this morning. And so it goes.
It really was in the 50s when I woke up this morning. And since the temps are down we’ll get started on our 2012 Omaha Corporate Cup Qualifying Series.
