1. Something terribly not right with my neck that likely has to do with borrowing a helmet with a visor for my 72 mile Valparaiso-New Buffalo-Valparaiso bike ride. I needed a helmet and what could i di?! it was generous to lend me one to use! This requires a massage.
2. Ever since my bike fall/mini-crash in Galena in late April my right ankle hasn't been right. I went to Athletico to have it checked and they said it was fine, but since I can roll it inward still, I'm thinking they were wrong. I will have it looked at my an actual medical professional post-Ironman. I think it is a stress fracture- maybe in the talus bone or a tear or stretch of the peroneus longus? It is in that area, the pain. I'm not a doctor in real life, I just play one on TV.
3. Sciatica or something not right with my right butt cheek or piriformis muscle. This has been an on and off thing for years. Sometimes foam rolling helps. Yoga can help and hurt. Thankfully this only stays in my booty and doesn't go to my knee or leg.

4. The newest ailment: the left top of the foot near the inner arch. Pain! No more high heels. Perhaps a (nother) stress fracture?
5. Saddle sores; they really don't need or require any elaboration. If you invite me to sit down and I say I'll stand, it isn't because I want you to remember me. It is because even in "those shoes", I'd prefer not to sit. Lady bits aren't having it.
...I'm the picture of health!!!!! :-)
