Not a bad week

Well, I lost over 2 lbs this last week. Aside from some heel pain in my right foot, I feel great. I should stop complaining.

Two medical items:
  • I went to the Stanford University Marfan Center to see if the aneurysm I have in my right common iliac artery could be related to a connective tissue disorder. The answer is 'no'. The Dr. felt, however that I have a dissection, not an aneurysm, and that we may never know how it happened. I am cleared for any activity except power lifting or similar things that would spike my blood pressure.
  • I had a follow up with my podiatrist and we tried an experiment to see if heel lifts would help my heal pain. I had to pull the lifts out after two days. Ouch. Time for new shoes!

I signed up for the Los Gatos Resolution 5 Mile Run on New Years Day. Just trying to keep things interesting.

It's been so busy lately that I have had trouble sneaking in workouts. However, when Tracy joined the YMCA a couple weeks ago she signed us up for a family membership. Now I have another option. That's open to 10pm.
