I did yoga with the Skyester and then a walk with my sis. So, what’s going on with this nerve issue I am having is sure sounding a bit like what my sister went through about ten years ago (but way less extreme). Her sciatic nerve problems was even on her right side, too (she wrote about what she went through here). Turns out I want to be just like her and follow her footsteps in every way, even the hard things;). We had a good chat about it all and I don’t know how I got so lucky to have her.
I found my favorite people in our area while we were out… Sharing their harvest with their neighbors? They win.
Welcome to my standing desk until I can get my hands on one. This change alone is already helping so much. Sitting so much has been killing me.
Mr. Beck decided to show me some strengthening exercises to get started with.
I’m really excited about yesterday’s appointment. I met with a doctor who did a chiropractic adjustment and realignment (INSTANT relief) and who spent a good amount of time talking to me about everything happening. The source of my problem is my lower back. It’s nice to finally know the root. He answered so many of my questions and feels confident I’ll be able to figure this out fast if I really work on my posture, daily habits, strengthening and stretching.
My homework for the next little while:
We are headed to my nephew’s wedding this weekend, and because it is Fall Break for the kids, we were able to leave a few days earlier.
I put the lumbar support on my seat, focused on my posture in the car, and we stopped for stretching every hour.
Pretty happy about the views so far.

We rented the cutest little cabin.
Until I’m running again (and pausing from biking, too, until I can build up my lower back again), I’ll just live through all of you. My nephew absolutely crushed it at regionals and is headed to state.
PS CIM is sold out but if anyone is wanting to run it, we can have my bib transferred to you!
