This Trucker Fights Back

You ladies hash out the details of the bake-off, I must be one of the Judges, let me repeat, I MUST be a Judge.

ok, I'm doing it. My return to walking starts in 3 minutes. I'm so doing this. I might be sorry but I can't take this any longer.

b-bye.
 
hey, sounds good trucker! I hope you enjoy your walk!

ps...i just made a chocolate, chocolate chip, cheesecake for my mother in law's b-day tommorrow! (ok, so I had a lick or two of the batter :O )
 
Here's what we know so far:

I did stretch and warm up on the bike for 5 minutes.

My Ipod greeted me when I turned it on with a robotic "Hello old friend, we've missed you".

I set out do a 20-25 minute just to get back into the groove. I did 1 hour and 5 minutes. (close to 2.75 miles)

I loved every minute of my walk.

I was prepared with a bag of ice post-walk and iced down my heel and arch for 20 minutes. I stayed seated after I removed the ice until my foot went back to normal body temp.

I showered and went to Walmart for my weekend supplies and suffered no discomfort during that trek.

As I sit here, I feel a dull pain but nowhere near what it use to be.

I think the smart play will be to rest it all weekend and start again on Monday.

I did 2 - 20 minute segments on the bike earlier today too.

I got my shine back :D

Today has been a great day on so many different levels.

Thanks for all the forum love. :)

Thanks for the cheesecake recipe. It actually sounds yummy :eek: I may make that for my birthday next Sunday - I'll let you know how it turns out. My regular recipe involves large amounts of cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk. Plus toppings :D

Yay for the walking but geez man, take it easy. You're makin' the younger ones look bad! ;)

I don't use naggy mother voice on Megan very often, so I'm going to have to try it out here....

T2!!! You might have been in your stride, but seriously...you need to ease your way back in to this!

Moderation. Sensibility.

Two very important words!

Enough preaching from me ;) (pot. kettle)

Play injured I say !! The way I see it, it only hurts when I'm awake so I got that ZzZzZ Time on my side ;

Well then, just eat the whole thing and tally it at 528 and be done with it !! so maybe you'll have to skip lunch View attachment 1538

I didn't sit on the edge of my seat when the TV chef made it cuz I'm not a big pastry/baked goods guy in the culinary skillz but I do remember he said the cream mixing was important to get just right, other than that it didn't sound like a complicated assembly.

I'd seriously like to hear your (or anyone's) opinion on the taste.

Accept my advance Happy Birthday wish too, no tellin' if I'd remember it next week - probably not.

hehe, cute. ok, now I'm gonna do a "now you know the rest of the story" for ya.

Debi, I knew I was screwed 2 minutes into the walk so I figured, wth, I'm here now and it's gonna hurt later anyway so let's just do this and do it big.

Honestly the ice did help but that's just a mask. Ice reduces swelling but it's not a mender of inflamed muscles, only time can (you know this, I'm not talking down to you) do that.

I will take off the rest of the weekend and re-evaluate. All I know is walking is 'my' exercise and the results are undeniable - now that I've seen it from both sides of the fence. :(
 
Thank you new b :D
