Taped for Shape

He he..I wonder if you are sick and bored of my on-going ramblings about running and injuries yet.

I'm idling now..waiting for time to past and too lazy to do anything else..was taking a nap but the sudden rain woke me up.

Yupe..I'm going to run tonight despite the injury.  The doctor didn't say I can't run..nor did he say I won't feel worse after the run.  One thing I like about this doctor is he always does his best to provide alternatives for us (me) to return to sports. 

So..I went to him today for a simple 'procedure'.

He wanted to use a trendy blue colored tape , just like those professional athletes you see on TV....I declined!  Skin color will do :P

Scientific evidence is mixed, but clinicians say it seems to work—at least in the short term.

Ok..I'm off to shower and get ready. Yup..the tapes are water resistant.

P/S : The tapes are not water resistant after all. Absorbs water but stayed on after it is dry again.
Advice ~ better to stay off water.
