Today is National Selfie Day. It seems crazy now, but years ago, the thought of wasting film taking a picture of yourself with the hope it would turn out was absurd. Now people take selfies often. Kids on Snapchat take them all day. This week I was doing some heavy cleaning in our storage area and came out with a selfie-worthy find. My family was horrified. The 80's called; they want their glasses back! These were my first pair of glasses. Why do I still have them? No ideas, but I'll be letting them go ASAP. After finding the glasses, I signed up for a gym so that I can have a variety of good options for exercise during this rehab phase back into running. I will be trying classes, elliptical trainers and lap swim. Stephanie and I were both lifeguards and swimming instructors years ago, but I haven't swum laps in years. I need to figure out when it's slow in the pool to dust off my skills. I found this little meme which sums up what you'll hear about my gym activity. Once I am back on a normal running program, the physical therapist promised a set of maintenance exercises good for all runners to keep their hips and hamstrings happy. I will share those on the blog as a public service and a prayer that your hamstrings stay happy! In the meantime, the PT is intentional about keeping me running at least a little. My family says 'Thank You!' As whatever keeps Mom on the road is a gift to the family.
Hope you you are able to get out for a run today, the longest day of the year. Take some selfies and feel free to post one in our comments section! Happy running--Missee
