My Journal

I rested all day. No issues. I watched TV and played some video games.

AM:
I went to get my leg checked out. I have strained or partially torn my Achilles tendon. I am in a molded splint and will be chilling for this whole week.

3.7 miles in 1 hour 26 minutes

So I did have a good walk and I even did some tree limb removal with the help of my neighbor. Somewhere along the way I severely irritated my Achilles tendon at my right foot heel. I am limping worse than I have in a long time. Hopefully tomorrow I will be OK again as I was this AM.

AM:
45 min elliptical machine

I was busy at work today. No super crazy, but enough to be busy. A few of my cheap work gifts came in. It is hard to shop online sometimes since you can’t see the actual sizes and shape of things. I am slightly disappointed in two of the items I bought. Oh well they were cheap.

AM:
45 min elliptical machine

We were busy today. we moved 5 rack mounted network devises, a server, and a whole bunch of patching. Then I had to deal with the problem children again. Maybe tomorrow they will get it right.

My Achilles tendon is still bothering me. Last time it took a couple months before it was normal so I am taking it easy and only doing one trip to the gym a day instead of two as I hoped to be back to by now.

AM:
40 min walking on treadmill 2 miles

Work was an easy pace today and I needed it. My Achilles tendon is killing me from a hike this weekend. I slipped on a rock and banged it hard and it is giving me some troubles now.

We made it home!

Here are pix from our hike to the fire tower in the Delaware water Gap on Friday.

Super hike at Jenny Jump State forest off of Shades of Death road.

We had a good time, we saw the cave then hiked up the mountain. It was tough but we did it. Here is a video telling the tales of this area.
