Stupid Soft Tissue Injury

[jamesq]

Adding to my frustration is my recent back injury. A reoccurrence of the usual back injury that I get every two years or so. If I had been running last week, it probably wouldn't have occurred, because I would have been keeping limber. Plus I probably wouldn't be up a pound this week. And now it's keeping me from running, probably for another couple of weeks.

On the bright side, the drugs are good and the three-day hump is over so I can now function reasonably well.

But I want to take a nice long run. The kind that leaves my breathless and happy to be alive. The kind that makes my stress go away.

As somebody who ends up with painful swelling in one of the knees, ankles or feet an annoying percentage of the time, I can fully empathize.

On the other hand, better a stupid soft tissue injury than an injury to the smart soft tissue, eh?
