Still Walking in Flip flops

Yesterday I ventured out in flip flops again to walk Laney. We had such a beautiful day and I wanted Laney to enjoy the day. I opted to walk a short distance in my flip flops as the back of my left heel has been bothering me and the pressure from my gym shoes seems to aggravate it. My husband and I are still sticking to our training schedule despite my achy heel. I seemed to recuperate from our six mile walk on Sunday, but the heel is still complaining. I still was able to walk three miles yesterday evening and hoping that the heel pain is temporary. I have been icing the heel and resting on my off days as much as one can. It is kind of hard to get through life without walking. I'm looking forward to a much needed vacation and hoping that the relaxation and fun will mend what ever is wrong with my foot. I continue to set my mind focused on walking the half marathon and continue to get strength from all who have been living with lymphoma. My biggest inspiration is my husband whom I continue to love and support. If walking and raising money for lymphoma research will take away some one's pain, then all the obstacles in my path are worth it. My husband, my children and I have awaken so many days with the uncertainty of living with cancer, We have drawn strength in knowing that other people like us have continued to live and we find peace in knowing that we can make a difference for someone else. Remember to support charities that are close to your heart as they rely on contributions for research. Get up everyday to bless your life and walk with your two legged or four legged friends. Your health depends on it!
