Wobbling for a Cure!

I have a confession… my Mommy duties are definitely not done for the day! My last blog was actually written yesterday, it took me that long to put this together and put the blog up! I am completely new to this and have no idea how to get one of those cute headers with all the pictures. A blogger friend is helping me out and sent me some links, so very soon I will get some visually appealing aspects up, in the meantime you are stuck with some ol’ fashioned simple text!

I have been training for my half-marathon for about 6 months now. This week has been an odd week. Both Tuesday and Wednesday I went to the gym and ran 5.5 miles, then did strength training. I’m taking today off as a rest day. My right foot has had a lot of issues since I started running. Because of the vestibular schwannoma I have had removed or radiated on either side of my head I am not only deaf but my balance is very wobbly. I tend to run a bit funny and have strain injuries on the right side. I read Chi Running and that has really helped, the techniques are very useful. My balance does add a challenge to running, but a challenge just makes things a bit more interesting! So if you happen to live in Rancho Cucamonga and see me running a bit wonky don't worry, and don't honk I can't hear you anyway!
