Haha very funny

Of course it was

I do dynamic stretching before running and static stretching after. Once after a race I didn't stretch, and one of my calves was so sore I could barely walk for a week. I was running faster than usual, and I don't think I'd get that sore if I didn't stretch after a normal run, but I certainly wouldn't feel good.

Ok, so you really are a runner. I am impressed

Cooldown. Helps maintain blood flow while your heart rate normalizes and helps prevent blood pooling and causing stiffness after a run.

'Least, that's what my track coach and our trainer always told us. Post run is more static stretching exercises than dynamic warm-up stuff.

Yes, I wanted to see how Abigail would respond.

You run?

You run?

Well, I have in the past when I still played ball in school as well as ran track. And, there have been other times when I would go through periods when I would. But, no, not now.

I do have the treadmill that I use sometimes but not often as well as the 2 bikes. But, you know what I prefer to do.

And, yes, I should incorporate cardio more in there. Right now I just want my elbow to get completely well so I can do what I love.

And, don’t ask me things you already know the answers to

I did take another shot a week or so ago. And, I have stopped everything as far as upper body trying to be good, and wearing a compression brace, which I don't know does any good or not. I still feel a little something in there at times when I turn it a certain way. So, I don't know
