And in other news

After spending the last 2 weeks (and a small fortune) at the physio, she tells me I have inflamed hamstring tendons, which is causing knee pain and referred SIJ and hip flexor pain.

The physio tells me it’s predominately an ‘overuse injury’ (go figure!), and I’m to ice, stretch, strength my gluteus and to rest!

Unlikely..

Dear India,
It’s been two months since I landed.
I miss you.
And your amazing array of pants.
I can’t wait to come back! 
Love stef!

A hearty story for Monday.


It felt like an excellent run.
Fast, so fast. 
Breathing under control.
Minimal knee and foot pain (take that physio!)
Heartrate in check.
….I was flying free. 

With every step I loved the run that little bit more. 

I got home, high fived myself, strutted around to get some water and stopped and stretched. 

And then I checked my max HR…226


WHAT THE FRRRRREEEAAKK!

THAT’S PRACTICALLY A HEART ATTACK RATE! 

HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE?!

HOW DID I NOT EVEN FEEL THAT?!

And that is the story of my super fast heart.
