Still on the DL.
My back is feeling 90% better. I am going to go to the gym tonight to do some of the weight machines for my arms and then try to do some light cardio, like the elliptical. Still a bit upset about this messing up my triathlon training, however, I've accepted that there's nothing I can do but give my back the time it needs.
On Tuesday night, my back was hurting so badly that I took one of my mom's muscle relaxers before going to bed. I had a heating pad on my back all day at work yesterday, and have been doing stretches that my dad had to do for his back in physical therapy awhile ago.
In the grand scheme of things, I'm thinking that missing 4 days out of an entire 8 weeks of training won't do TOO much damage. That's my hope, at least.
