In today's workout, I did something to my neck and shoulder. I was in pain immediately and had to modify the remainder of the workout. I iced it when I got home but tried to work through it and ignore it. It was probably an hour into the day that I realized that something was really wrong. So I called and made an appointment with Dr. Jeff although I was a little scared. I have heard many stories about how he is really good at what he does but that the process is quite painful.
So when I arrived at the office, I was nervous but I really needed something to be done for my shoulder. He quickly identified the problem areas and showed me on a chart the muscle that was involved. Then the treatment began. I have always believed that I have a high tolerance for pain, but this appointment made me realize that I am really a wimp! I didn't cry...although I did let out a yelp once. But when I walked out of his office, my shoulder felt great. I have a follow up appointment on Friday.
The worst part...no running or gym for a few days. Ugh.
Read along with my blog as I discuss weight, schedule and life challenges as I try to get my triathlon training back on track. I will also discuss what I've learned along the way and what new goals I'm setting for myself.
