Busy Busy Busy

I've just gone through a couple of busy weeks with my business, but somehow I've managed to keep up with my training.  In my last post, I was optimistic about the pain I've been having; however, after my workout on Tuesday (1.44 miles in 17 minutes), I found that my hip was pretty sore. My stroke improvement class is coming along - I seem to whine less and less each week.  Yesterday, I got to work on my back crawl, which used to be a nice relaxing stroke; however, I have learned that there is much more to it than I had thought!  I had the pleasure of company for my workout last night.  I think that having someone with me made me push through the pain, but I'm definitely paying for it this morning (1.47 miles in 18).  The other day, I called a physiotherapy centre that was recommended by my doctor, and found out that I can get a whole running package to help get me started.  I hesitated because the cost is fairly substancial, but I think that it will be essential for me actually making it to running a marathon.  So, I suppose later today I will book my first appointment and worry about how I'm going to finance it later.  Add in new shoes, a new swim suit (my old ones are either waaay to big or waaay too old), and maybe some appropriate workout clothes, and I'm going to be eating pb&j for a while lol!  I price I'm willing to pay.  It's been almost 10 years since I met my last big goal, and I'm so glad that I have finally found the next big one :)
