Almost all positive
Sep1220121:26 p.m.
Its been a week of ups and downs but at the end of it i am generally feeling positive. Rather stupidly i thought i had my Plantar Fasciitis beaten and didnt renew my prescription for diclofenac. Last wednesday i got out of bed and it became really obvious that it was still with me. This has meant no running for me until i could get some more and wait for them to kick in. On the positive side they now have and i managed a steady run this morning. It felt really good and i ended up doing a 4 miler rather than the 3 i had planned. Ive also managed to lose half a stone in the last month. Then to top it off i had a health check at the doctors yesterday and found out that im not an imminent stroke victim. My blood pressure is normal and my cholesterol is 3.7. All this means that despite being massively overweight my stroke and heart attack risk is only 0.1% higher than average. All rather motivating really.
