Calgary 5K Fun Run is happening in 28 days
Pinned
Start Here... Step 1... What are your goals?
I am very goal orientated (I actually struggle to get anything done unless the goal is written down) so I want you to to get the most out of this group and I want to help you get there. Is it just to run every day down the block? Fully recover from injuries? Run 5k or a 10k? Whatever it is we all want to know so we can cheer you on, help you out, get you answers and grow together! I'll go first!
Streak Still Going :)
Up to about 10k a day walking and running again. Yesterday about 1k and the day before 2k Just trying to not get injured! Foot and ankle are a pain in the ass. Only when I put weight on it though! So this could all be cured by never standing up again :)

Creatine
I'm sure some of you might have heard about creatine - a supplement that a lot of bodybuilders will use to help build up more muscle. BUT - are you missing out by not taking creatine as a runner? Creatine has many positive benefits for runners - it helps maintain and build muscle mass, improve your short burst energy (sprints, stairs, hills), helps with recovery, and can have positive effects on brain health (promising studies on positive effects when it comes to preventing alzheimer's, and helping with depression) Here's a video I made going more in-depth on creatine, and if you should take it: https://youtu.be/moKdvopyzTQ If you have any other questions feel free to comment below!

Gettin better - Short Run Today
Rest and rehab has been coming along. Worried I might have a stress fracture but who knows! Walked about 6k yesterday. 4k today already and going to do some more later. A big win for me is on the strengthening side of things. Have a 14 day streak of 100 pushups and 40 lunges. Very happy with that and looking to expand that side of things.

4 km walk and a ton of rehab
Got in a walk but mostly pushing stretching, strength and not getting more injured than I already am Feeling less sore today but not willing to risk it and really hurt myself. Bonus... Maggie got completely bulldozed by a big poodle at the dog park haH
