Long Story Short

I'm taking a week off. My Achilles is still sore and when I woke up on Monday my joints were so stiff I had to shuffle my feet as it was too painful to walk "normal". Things were still stiff and sore yesterday, but I attempted to run. After 10 steps I said "screw it" and finally realized my body needs a break. So I'm taking off until Saturday and will re-evaluate then. The joint stiffness has been going on for awhile, but usually works itself out within 5 minutes. Lately, though, I feel like I'm 90. Clear sign that I need to take some time off - - - - - ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
