Hobbling

Since my return from Texas I have yet to get back in to my regular exercise routine, so Saturday was the day for plunging back in. Rather foolishly I went to the Lima Hash and against my better judgement and with a little pressure from others I attempted to run 14k. The day was dank and misty, there was a car accident as soon as we set off and a few near misses with the runners! It was hardly a buena vista running through the back streets and over bridges spanning the highway.I could not manage the running and reverted to walking and talking.(persuaded a young thing to accompany an old lady) I finshed last, exhausted and with a sore foot. I am still hobbling today and now realise youth is no longer on my side or even anywhere in the vicinity! Then to make matters worse I went on a bike ride Sunday which only added to the stiffness and soreness. This week I have a visitor so we are out and about alot. The party and dancing on Sat night no doubt exacerbated the foot problem. I am approaching the final week of my cookery course and preparing for my exam Sat( a buffet for 100)so many more hours on my feet will not help; "my left foot". I shall have to hobble through the week and hope to finsh it without resorting to pain killers.
