Two weeks ago it started out my son had the stomach bug, then by the end of the week I got it. I then had to have my wisdom tooth surgically cut out on March 30th, I really thought I could get back to running the next day...I was very wrong. The office said I had to wait at least a week before I could even think about running!
I have had nothing but problems since I had this procedure - my mouth got infected, extreme pain many days after, and then the medicine was actually making me sick; needless to say I really thought I was dying this past Monday - I have never been/felt that sick EVER!
I had went to my post op appointment this Tuesday and asked the surgeon why my mouth/jaw is still really painful, he said that this was a really tough extraction and that the tooth was very deep - well I guess this explains everything!
Now back to running and training and all that fun stuff - today I am planing on running 4 miles. I am actually really nervous to get back to running since I still am in pain, and the surgeon did warn me running could cause more swelling and even more pain. I have to train for this Marathon though it is only weeks away - I am freaking out, not going to lie!!
I had so many goals that I wanted to do at this Marathon in the beginning, but now my only goal is to just finish it. I am not going to lie I have so many emotions running through me lately, I am scared, nervous, worried about "can I really do this". I have been in training since November for this Marathon so I know there is no turning back now, and I don't want to even consider doing that! This is huge for me, and to actually do it will be one of the most amazing moments of my life!!!
Honestly right now I could use all the support I can get! I WILL do this! If everyone could throw me some prayers, good vibes, positive thoughts - whatever you do - I would appreciate that more than anything. I have a tough few weeks of training left and I need to push and give this all I got!!
I also want to mention that I will have reviews up soon of RunnerBox (Subscription Box) with a special code just for those who read my blog. Running Headband (which I have to say I have been wearing, just because it is so cute), Flat Fanny Pack which is made by a wonderful woman on Etsy and the ICE3 Cooling Cloths!
If there is a specific product that you would like to see me review - let me know in the comments or send me a message on Facebook!
Thanks for staying with me through this journey - and I hope everyone has a great day!
