First off, I'm still training for my marathon in October. I've had a setback with some pain in my left calf muscles and we haven't been able to truly figure out what the problem is. I've scaled back my running to give it a chance to rest but I think I'm about to start ramping it up. Some runs the thing will hurt like crazy and other days it'll sorta hurt and then go away. Like this morning...I ran 6.8 miles at a 8:14/mile pace and had little problem. Ran 16 miles last Sunday, little problem. Ran an easy 4 miles last Wednesday...that sucker hurt like a you-know-what. I ice it every day, Jonnene will rub it down, will do the elliptical machine at the gym, and I often wear compression socks...seems to help. More to come on this little adventure.
We've started our renovation on our master bathroom! It sorta sounds silly since our "master bathroom" is the same size...small...as our guest bathroom but we're trying to make it look bigger by taking out the soffets and the dividing wall/door. Should be interesting. In the meantime we've moved into the guest bedroom to avoid the dust being kicked up. Here's some pics of the job:
Looking to the left after I removed the shower head and most of the fixtures last Monday.
The work has started (last Tuesday)! The toilet is gone and most of the plumbing disconnect has taken place. Also, the electrical has been removed...you can see the working light hanging from the ceiling.
Same angle with EVERYTHING ripped out! Sheetrock goes in next week.
This view is from the inside of the shower looking to the right of the bathroom. Drawer handles are gone as is the toilet paper roll holder.
Same view with everything gone and demo'd down to the studs. Next week the plumbing will be adjusted and new electrical will go in. The room's nice and large when there's nothing in it!
