Checking in. Basketball season is hitting me like a truck. Not really. But it will by Saturday afternoon. I can feel that I need to foam roll my hamstrings today, and I have what should be 2 very up-and-down-the-court games tomorrow to be ready for. I'll be getting in a solid 10+ hours on the court this week, and that should be pretty consistent until the week of Christmas. Just the kick in the pants I needed. My achilles are hurting less, and my peroneal tendons are hurting more. When we got home last night and settled after our games (in which I apparently had waaaaay too much caffeine) we sat in bed and watched about an hour of TV and both of my ankles just absolutely ached. The cardio will be there by January to get me through, it'll just be a matter of how much tylenol (and motrin...shhhhh!) that I need to take to get through race days.
I know I've talked about it in other threads, but I'm seriously so stuck on costume ideas. And the thought of really half-A'ing it makes me even less excited about things. I'm already super blah about the prospect of running (except the 5k with DD and DH) but to not be excited about the running AND not have a costume is really bothering me.
I explained my possum park sports team idea to DH. He's like "you'd have to explain it. there's no way I would have figured that out." Totally valid.
So I've started looking at the pieces that I already have to figure out what might work. TBD if all of them still fit since I've had a few for awhile and have gained about 25 pounds since I purchased some of them 4 years ago. But nothing is really making me feel like any sort of excitement. If you have any suggestions I'm definitely open to them.
