As of last night's postings (5/22), we had increased another 750 miles over the weekend, but admittedly not all steps have been input yet.
An update on our map progress will be sent out tomorrow to recap the busy weekend. Our numbers of individuals tracking every day are great. Estimates are OK as well.
This is a good moment to send a reminder: LISTEN TO YOUR BODY!!!
He who shall remain nameless did not do so over the weekend and wound up with a ligament issue in his foot while pretending to be Roger Federer when his game more closely resembles Sheldon Cooper. As a result, it is going to force a shift to....ughhhhh....swimming and biking to pull in the steps.
A reminder:
- Stretch, stretch, stretch.
- If something in your legs does not feel right, do not push it and give it a breather, or switch to an exercise that will reduce the wear and tear. Work your way in slowly.
- Make sure you are building back the potassium and other minerals you need to continue the exercise. Bananas and potatoes (the latter in moderation) both have a ton of potassium. Encourage the olive oil and sea salt roasted potatoes and not the French Fry version - sorry McDonalds!
Of course, if your body feels great and is telling you that you are ready to complete the ironman/woman triathlon with no preparation, let your brain take over. Build your way up and give your body time to recover.
