The Injury Bug...

Well.

Special Olympics was this past week. I worked the event as security staff, and had a great time with it. One small problem.

Sometime during the Games on Monday, I tweaked my back somehow. The spasms were so bad that I nearly needed help getting to my truck after a late dinner on Monday night. Lots of stretching, heat, and ice and rest have gotten me back to nearly 100% as of tonight. I feel much better.

The sad part is, it took away a week's worth of training. I could hardly function daily, let alone trying to go to the gym.

These are the weeks that we all face sometimes on the road to our goals. Just have to keep working hard to rehab those wounds, know when the body can and can't go, and watch out for the injury bug no matter what it is we're doing.

Stay strong. Back to the gym on Monday.
