10K In 1.5 Weeks. Haven't Run In A Wekk..... Too Much Taper?



Recommended Posts

I've run into some family stuff (trying to help my parents get ready to move after pack-ratting in their home for 35 years- this is a HUGE HUGE HUGE job), and I haven't been able to get out for ANY runs in the last week!!! I can't see any runs coming up either....... I have a 10k race in a week and a half.

Am I doomed???

on a side note, I jammed my shoulder the other day. How much impact do you figure it'll have on my running (if any)?

How much were you running before?

Re: shoulder - I've got a bum shoulder and while it bothers me a bit if I run over half an hour, it's manageable. After all, everything else is hurting, anyway, lol.

What's the worse that can happen? You walk part of it? A DNF? Don't sweat it. Just go out and have a good time...

This shouldn't affect you too much unless you try to favor it some. Try keeping the tension out of your hands by putting your thumb on the middle outside knuckle of your forefinger while you move your arms in your motion. The cupping of your hand will help prevent tightening your muscles in your shoulder.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
