Personal:

I used to be a runner in high school, but then I ended up choosing to just mainly focus on soccer. I played at UVU and that was a lot of fun! But now that soccer is over I am setting new running goals! I am married to the love of my life, Nick Beard, and even though he doesn’t love running, he is my number one supporter in all that I do and my best friend. :)

Today I ran the Draper 5-k route just for fun because I might do the race on Saturday. I did it in 19 min. 6 sec. Definitely not my best time, but I just found out I have a little stress fracture in my shin... no wonder it was hurting in the last mile. So we'll see if it starts to feel better or not, hopefully! Or I won't be able to run on Saturday... and I have a lot of soccer coming up too!! Darn shin!

Do you have a stress fracture or shin splints? If it's shin splints, I would recommend icing your legs (use a small trash can and fill with ice water) for 20 minutes every time after exercise. It makes a huge difference if you are consistent with it. If you really suspect a stress fracture, I would go see a doctor (usually requires 6 weeks healing in a boot) so you'll be back before the fall season. Best of luck! :)

I'm going to the doctor today, but we called and talked to him and he says it sounds a lot like a stress fracture, but only a minor one that will need some rest... but hopefully everything will be alright!! Thank you! :)
