Thanks @Anrish - I did an epsom salts bath last night (can't do the ice bath thing but I did use some ice packs before bed) - lol, I know that 'hit by a train' feeling quite well right about now lol.

Walking is a bit better today, not as slow as yesterday so I dove in today for a P90X Plyometrics - after the initial few minutes of agony, everything seemed to oil right up and I was moving like a kid...until I stopped...whole other story lol.

Yesterday was a very easy and slow 5k. Glorious. It's the closest I get to utter peace i.e., that immediate time right after completion of a real challenge and then the bask in the afterglow. I so wish I could bottle this... : )

Forgot my 5km run yesterday. Taking a day off today, which is out of the norm, but my calves are super tight and I think they need an additional days break before I injure something.

@City Slicker so proud of you my friend. Big hug for making to marathon. You are very strong. :hug:

@anthony Honestly I am in disbelief that you can't see yourself in marathon. :wideeyed:

Na... I exercise to eat and drink whatever I like, not to have a runners physique and do marathons or such. I love the pump from exercise, but I also hate the pain from too much of it. Been there, done that, when in the military. I've had my years of that shit... in my 40's I want to be healthy only, whilst eating and drinking lots of yummy stuff without the worry of getting fat and depressed as a result. I like being healthy. Healthy body, healthy mind.

@anthony Here we say, having good health is like having greatest wealth. I see where you come from. :tup:

 

[City Slicker]

Thank you @Tanishq - much appreciated.

I remember hearing once the joke about:
One guy says to a runner, 'wow, that's a lot of distance you run. Why do you do it?'
And the runner says, 'because it feels so good when i stop'
; )

'because it feels so good when i stop'

Oh yeh... nailed.
