What's that a chiropractor?

This week was kind of off and maybe in a little bit of transition. After going to the chiropractor and being told not to ski or run much I was feeling a little at a loss. Also, felt like a lot of the PT I had been doing was pointless. I guess only the hamstring, but that took a lot of time. Also, Masters swimming on Sunday is so grounding that when that is cancelled I feel pretty off.  First I stopped doing the runs and then Sunday I did kind of a big effort. Friday I skipped altogether and left work early to go to Erik's Christmas party. I was also feeling very tired and worked from the week. Also, it has been very warm here and I think I jumped the gun on giving you the go ahead to write in ski workouts.We don't have any snow. I am seeing green grass from my window at work.  

Chiropractor- I already sent you an email explaining a lot and I do have a bunch of questions for him at my appointment tomorrow. He went so fast that a lot got lost on me. For instance. I have this tape on my leg that is aligning it differently. It feels great, but how in the long term am I going to lose the tape. Also, not sure how my big toe is connected to all of this. I think it is my walking motion but need to clarify. Also, he says one leg is longer than the other but couldn't this be from muscular imbalance not just the bones. How does this get fixed? However, I ran and maybe overdid it on Sunday and I haven't felt so good in a very, very long time. No pain. I am very, very excited about this prospect and am going to keep giving the Chiropractor my business for a while longer. However, I do think like I was about, that things are changing. Less running for a while? Different PT? It might take a couple of weeks to get in a new groove. 

Workouts

Now that I gave you all my negative things here are a couple of positive and your workouts/ideas/suggestions were not all for no reason. 

Wednesday- Bike- Went really well. Was feeling a bit rusty for the first couple and like my legs didn't want to hurt but they warmed up and it was a fairly hard workout. Note: I feel that way in swimming too, you say go fast without any builds and it takes a few 50's to really get my arms to go around. 

Thursday- Masters swim. Got in a good workout. I don't remember much of it. Only that 3000 was done before I knew it. 

Saturday- Substituted running for riding. Only rode over to the house and back but figured that was better than nothing. Did the roller ride and followed it by a really good core session. 

Sunday- I got up and tiled in the morning (well midmorning). My friend had a tile saw I could use and I could pick it up at 2pm. The pool is only open on Sunday from 1-4. My original plan was to get the saw, do the swim, and walk on the treadmill. It was such a beautiful day and the glue smell from the house was getting to me. I decided to take the treadmill thing one step further and go hike the M, straight up. Of course I couldn't just go to the M, so I made it to the overlook, then first hump, and then 2nd. I was feeling so good and getting in a really good workout. I ran/shuffled/slid down. Lots of snow on top. It was a really, really nice hike and fully worth missing the workout. 

Schedule- Not much at work for the next week. Just the day to day assays to wrap up my mouse takedown last week. 

Masters- Sunday is the 30 minute swim and the 500 fly. I would definitely like to do the 30 minute swim. The fly, not so much. 

House- Still lots of tiling to do. The weekend should again be focused on tiling. I am going to try to get over there this week too. Lots to do with the house and very little time. 

Camp-

I read over your email and am stewing. My biggest concern at this point is pool time. There is usually a meet at the Swim Center that weekend and MSU is only open for regular hours on Sunday. I sent out an inquiry today about renting/using MSU for a couple of hours on Saturday and the cost. I am having Bobcat flashbacks though, because it takes forever, if ever, to hear back from them. Anyway, I will send you an email at some point in the next few days with my critique. Really it just made for questions about logistics. I think the content is really good. 

Okay, that's it. Not a lot this week. I feel like I need to ask the Chiropractor lots of questions so I can get back to a groove on.
