Bloggin with Kelley: My life with Spina Bifida and much more!!!

Hey y’all!!  So if you read last weeks blog you know that a BIG goal of mine this week was to get back to 3.10 miles.... And on Monday morning I CRUSHED that goal!! I ended up having to get in done on the treadmill but that ended up being a GREAT thing!! Last time when I did 3.10 miles on the treadmill it took me 74(1hr 14min)... This time I was able to finish in 66 MINUTES(1hr 6mins!)!!! When I first started I thought oh man I am going to have to stop WAY more times than I normally do.... But that was not the case AT ALL! I only stopped twice!! And the best part was my knee felt GREAT!!! It was definitely the best walkin day I have had in a LONG time!!  The last couple weeks I have been taking Saturday off.. But this week has been SUPER crazy so a walk was needed this morning to reach my 15 mile goal!! It was a little bit slower than I was hoping for but for a Saturday I will totally take it!! AND thanks to that walk I will end the week with exactly 15 miles!!  So here w...

Hey y'all!  OMG this is been one AWESOME week of walking! I started off the week a little slow... But Tuesday it started to amp up! I hit just OVER two miles (2.08 miles to be exact😉) for the first time in a month! Oh but that's not even the biggest thing! On Thursday I pushed the ole knee even harder and was able to get back over two and a half  miles!! 2.55 miles to be exact😉!  It was not easy and I did stop a few more times then I usually do... But I finished and my knee felt GREAT when I was done!! Not gonna lie I was so excited after that walk I cried a little!  Even bigger than that is the fact that I was able to get in 14.79 miles!! Now yes it's not the 17-18 miles that I am use to but it the highest amount I have had in 4 weeks! So that made it a BIG win!!  The biggest thing to come out of this week of walking is the fact that as of today I am only 47.10 miles from hitting 2,000 miles walked since November of 2016!! When I first started having all the ...

Hey y'all! To say tendinitis recovery has not been easy the last couple of weeks would be an understatement.... It's been down right ROUGH! The first week back was filled with tears and frustration at the fact that my knee was still sore and I couldn't push myself as hard as I wanted! Don't get me wrong I was thrilled to be back walking... But anyone that knows me knows I'm a go big or go home kind of girl! So having to SLOWLY get back to walking has been hard for me! Even thru all the tears and frustration I still managed to hit 11.40 miles!!  This week has been MUCH better! Thanks to the crazy Mississippi summer heat causing heat advisories almost all week it was treadmill walkin week! Y'all my knee seems to be FINALLY starting to get back to normal! On Tuesday I was able to hit 2 miles for the first time since June 13th!! And then on Thursday I backed it up with a SECOND 2 miler!! The first 2 miler wasn't the best feeling 2 miler but I made it thru! Thank...
