Injured runner

My first "blog" is about my silly injury. I was going along great finished my last 5k with a pb time and was feeling really good about where I was in my running life. Then it happened, I was "showing off" for my 4 1/2 year old, who just started gymnastics, I thought she would like to see a round off...well as soon as I landed I knew I had done it. I felt a jar in my shin and I knew it was no good.  Upon resting for 3 days I attempted to run my regular 3 mile evening run and less than 1/2 a mile in i was feeling a hotness and pain in my shin that shouldn't be there!  Turning around I walked back to the car, moping and complaining about my lack of thought when attempting a round off after at least 17 years...Yesterday I went out with my sister, after 4 days of icing and rest and ran 3.8 miles, they were slow and after mile 3 kind of painful but I think, for the most part, I'm feeling much better and am on the mend!  Next race will be Muncies Soles to Souls 10k...
