One of the pillars of my physical rehab philosophy is too steadily push the envelope. So far, this has always worked until... last Sunday when I decided to suddenly transition from walking into running three and a half miles. This was a very bad idea and today, I'm paying dearly from it as I can no longer run, as pain reminds me of my speed limit that has just been reset to some lower level.
Well, faced with this reality I can only learn from it and better understand that pushing too far, too fast is playing Russian roulette and can sometime backfire. Until I feel good enough for getting back into running, I'll be more patient and more prudent. Promised!
