Sunday is pool day! I so badly wanted to run but I know that with a week out from Boston I need to try to stay off of my foot as much as possible. Pool running is one of the most effective ways to train with an injury. You’re basically running underwater without the weight on your feet. After about a half hour of pool running, I swam some laps for some more cardio and to work on my breathing. Then I hit the workout room to do some PT exercises which included farmer marches, planks, and foam rolling. And now I’m really dialing in on nutrition. Not that I had not already but I’m really thinking about what to put in my body this week. Making soup today with bone broth, prepping another batch of bone broth for the week, and just really thinking about what I’m putting in my body leading up to the week before Boston. It’s getting real!!
