August 29, 2021 BACK ON MY FEET AGAIN

 Had a great run this morning--despite the broken toe. Yup. That's what I get for walking around barefoot.  I smashed my baby toe into the side of the couch last weekend. It has turned several colors--dark purple, blue, pink, yellow and now an ominous shade of grey. Couldn't put a shoe on for a few days but it's much better now. Not much you can do for a broken toe. Yoga and running have been a bit of a challenge BUT I'm getting it done. The toe doesn't hurt while I run--BUT after I run OUCH--a little ice really helps calm it down. Gotta be careful with the Chatturanga too. Never realized---exactly what the FOUR corners of the foot really meant until now. We take our feet for granted UNTIL WE CAN'T--never really paying attention to them UNTIL something happens. It's really a shame. If it weren't for our feet --we wouldn't be able to DO SO MANY THINGS. Think about it........ Did you know most people walk over 100,000 miles in their lifetime--and they aren't doing it on their hands. So I'm trying to be kinder to my feet because they have to last a lifetime. Zoe Walker, the main character in Clare Mackintosh's thriller, I See You, depends on her feet too--to keep her safe as she runs from a stalker in the London Underground. One day while on her commute home, Zoe sees her own face in a classified ad. The website is FindTheOne.com and it's an ad she didn't post. Each day, a different woman appears in the ad and Zoe finds out that the women in the ads are later victims of violent crimes. She goes to the police and a policewoman named Kelly takes her case. This psychological thriller is told in alternating points of view between Kelly and Zoe as Kelly and her partner Nick try to solve the case and keep Zoe and the other women in the ads alive. Find out who is behind the classified ads and the crimes when you read this suspense filled, creepy mystery for yourself. It's about 450 pages or a 4.5 mile run that might have you rethinking your routine. Enjoy.
