This morning I was able to take a 35 min. walk without pain Not as fast as I was walking before, but I'm amazed I didn't have pain. Now I'm crossing my fingers that I will still feel okay tomorrow.

I may do pilates tomorrow even if I'm not sore from my walk today just to let myself heal. Also, I found a very good beginner's pilates video that gives you a nice burn in your abs, legs, and arms--especially my arms--without hurting my injury. I may alternate that with walking this week.

I am so bummed I will have probably lost all my running progress by the time I get back to it. I don't want to even attempt jogging for at least another couple of weeks. When I say this was a bad injury, it was really bad. I wished I had had narcotic painkillers especially that first week.
