Sidelined

First of all I want to say, there are so many people that have inspired me with running and getting in shape. I want to share a post about them one of these soon days, but right now I am frustrated. I have been doing a running program since the first of the year. I am not a runner, so it has been a push for me. I was finally to a point that I was enjoying the running. I was feeling good with it and was quite proud of how far I had come. The last few weeks I have been running 3 miles 3 times a week. No it isn't alot, but it was good for me. Just knowing I was accomplishing it was meaning so much for me. Then the frustrating part came. The injury. Apparently I have done something to one of the muscles in my hip. The doctor told me to stop the running til it is better and that I should go see a physical therapist. SIDELINED! I was at such a sweet spot (for me) and now I have to stop. SO FRUSTRATING! So, I am going to vent about it here...because I need to let it out and because I can....it's my blog! The doc did say I can use an eliptical. Anyone that lives close by me have one they want to get rid of? Don't quite have the money to purchase one. Don't know when I would go to a gym to use one with Jim's schedule. So, once again, SIDELINED!
