Cortisone, At Last!

Once again, squeezing in a work has been impossible on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday due to long hours and stressful situations. Nonetheless, Dave and I agreed to meet at 6 a.m. for a morning swim because that was the only time in our schedules. Sure enough, just making the commitment to meet someone for an early work-out was all the motivation I needed.

With the triathlon fast approaching next week, the swim was necessary to ensure that I didn't lose any endurance and not be able to make it to the shoreline. Talk about the consequences of not meeting one's goal!

Today, which seemed like weeks later but in realty was only 24 hours later, my doctor's appointment was to check-on my injured shoulder which aches day-in and day-out for the last 15 or so years. I finally succumbed to the magical powers of drugs by requesting a cortisone injection as the physical therapy has not reduced the pain. Hopefully, this is my magic bullet aiding me in motion and pain relief.

Running...I remember you...please come back. I miss you!

I have a week-end date with running. Let's see how Saturday goes and perhaps, there will be a second date on Sunday.
