I have been working out regularly this month and still the scale just goes up. It is frustrating to say the least. Ben says that my stomach looks flatter and I guess I agree but the numbers matter to me even though I know it is irrational.
I have been suffering from plantar fasciitis for the last few weeks. I have dropped the treadmill for now. I did a long (4.85 mile)run outside on Sunday but other than that, I have been rowing. I switched to my outside running shoes for everyday wear this week too and that helps a lot. Going barefoot at judo was uncomfortable and I know that my no-support slippers should probably be replaced. I am hoping that the rest will make drastic permanent changes unnecessary.
This week is the "Skeleton Crew" challenge at Concept 2. The goal is to row 31,000 meters in the week before Halloween. Some people did this in one day but 31k is a lot of rowing for me. I was on track until today. I have a dentist appointment and will miss my lunchtime workout. Also, I am pretty sore from the last two days of hard rows. I will try to do a short row tonight at home and make up the other meters another night.
