A week ago I had treadmill injury, and this is perhaps the longest injury I had. As I blog today, I can't even jog, nor walk decently. The injury is taking too long and I should be so annoyed at this point in time. This injury though paved light to a new world and it enlightened me to new sorts of training which does not involve running.
Now that I'm more into biking while I'm injured, I'm actually getting to love it. In fact, my bike is now my favorite toy next to my laptop. I'm now also able to swim during the evening and I'm happy the someone commented that I've improved my swim. Not that I'm good at it, but at least I can do laps without sinking.
I'm not sure though when I'd be able to run again. I'm still a runner and running is still my ultimate priority. This injury is taking too long though, so since I don't have a choice, I'd have to stick and enjoy my new workouts.

We must still go biking... glad you enjoy it
NYAHAHAHAHA! Welcome to the "dark side." Cycling is the best sport evaaaarrrr
Ano, Animo Tri na bro?
Philip - Yeah, just let me know when. I'm doing rounds around Bonifacio Highstreet.
Margarita - Hehehe... oo ang saya mag bike. For the Animo run, baka pass muna ako. Unless a miracle happens and my injury heals sooner than expected. This injury is killing me. Kasama ko si Norman sa MASA last night and I heard that your joining the Whiterock Triathlon!!! Men!!! Lakas ng loob mo talaga, bilib ako.
Yeah, I'm joining Whiterock. :) Hope you can join next year! :)
Taki,
easy ka lang sa injury mo, ang blessing diyan, mas mag dedevelop bike at swim mo para kung magaling na injury mo, isa ka nang ganap na triathlete!! woohoo!!!!
Levy
Hi Taki. Cross training helped me a great deal during my injury last year. It was fun getting in some swimming and biking. The two are now part of the workout week.
Levy - yeah I'm enjoying it right now. This morning I biked around Mall of Asia and it was really greak. I logged my first 1 hour just this morning.
Wayne - Wow, so biking and swimming is just a normal thing for you already. Btw wayne, since you've been to many countries, have you been to Kuala Lumpur before? I'm actually at the airport on my way to Malaysia. Just wondering if you know some running areas around KL? I'm hoping to be able to at least jog 2 days from now as I see improvements in my heel.
Taki, hope you get this in time. I haven't been to Malaysia but I believe runmd has. You might want to check with him regarding running sites at KL.
Hi brother, guess what, yeah I registered for the animo tri... I will let you know how it went... I have to train hard this week in swimming.

Wayne - Apparently I'm just able to read you comment just now. Its just a bummer that the supposed free wifi access at the guest house we stayed was down the whole time of our stay in KL. I was suppose to run around KL but I still felt pain in my heels until today. I guess this type of injury needs to take more time for healing.
Philip - Glad to hear your doing the Animo Sprint tri. I hope you get to enjoy your first triathlon. Tell me more about it okay. God Bless.
