Greetings, fellow 50+ers! I hope you are all enjoying these final days of January.
The good news is that I finally got back to a week with 20 miles (give or take a few yards) of actual running. The calf issue responded well to treatment and is now officially a thing of the past. The knee still aches periodically, but it hasn’t prevented me from running (though it may be a contributing factor to my slowing pace).
The bad news comes on the medical front where another set of test results came back with less than stellar news. I have another scan scheduled for tomorrow, then an appointment with the doc on Friday where we will likely come up with a treatment plan. Hopefully he’ll be able to talk me off the ledge. And to add insult to injury, tomorrow’s scan requires me to refrain from running for 24 hours prior, so I will have to skip tomorrow’s scheduled run. Oh well, the legs have been a bit tired lately and can probably use the extra rest.
