I view writing like work. I have to write at a certain time, for a certain amount of time. Sometimes, that time goes longer, and that usually happens on the weekends, or vacation time, or when absolutely nothing else is going on. But I know that every night, at such and such time, I shall write.
But then shiny's come.
And my hour becomes two becomes three and I still have to write.
Which, honestly, I'm going to, just as soon as I'm done explaining why I didn't.
KTape.
Not KT Tape, like I was calling it.
Kinesiology tape.
As sported by many, many, many runners at the Boulder Bolder when I ran it a couple years ago. There were so many different runners wearing so many different colors of KTape in so many different ways, that at first, I thought it was just some strange runner fashion accessory meant to replicate war paint or something. Because, not athlete.
But I ran tonight, and noticed my ankle, which was sore during a workout on Wednesday, performed quite fine during the run, but was a bit sore and grumpy after, because I've been putting a lot of stress on it. I went to the store to pick up one of those big sports ace bandages from the 1980s or so, when I saw KTape, and thought, what the heck, I've been running a few years now. I run. I'm a runner. I can pull it off all legit like.
It's pink, too, so I had to hide it from the one in my house who likes pink that isn't Drama Girl...
Anyhooo...
You have to go to the website to watch a video to apply it right. So I did. And I was jealous, because I didn't think to buy multi-colors... And then, I saw it could be used for bunions. Bunions! So I had to watch that video, too.
Then I read the blog...
It's like, a thing...
And then I realized I'm supposed to be writing, and I"m way too easily distracted by shinies, but hey, KTape!
I'd take a pic of me in my pink Ktape, but I think my feet are not photogenic, so I"ll spare you.
