| 0:00.0 | What's up, fellas? Welcome back to Comma's Overcobra with me, your host Emma Abrahamson. |
| 0:05.4 | I am actually being the epitome of lazy right now. I am laying in my bed. My microphone is set up so poorly, |
| 0:13.2 | where it's gonna fall over, but I just can't fathom sitting at my desk right now to record this, |
| 0:18.8 | so I'm laying in my bed and my dog is lying next to me, sleeping at the moment, and she's only six |
| 0:23.4 | months old, so the odds that she wakes up and starts pestering me are very high because I have not |
| 0:28.2 | taken her to the dog park yet today. So that's how my day is going. Today I am recording a solo |
| 0:34.4 | episode because I feel like it's been quite a long time since I've given an update on what I'm |
| 0:38.7 | doing in my life, and I haven't done the best job at posting on YouTube, oops, and even my |
| 0:44.0 | Instagram story, it's like a little bit cryptic, so I figured I'd give like a kind of an update |
| 0:47.7 | episode. Let's just get straight into it. |
| 1:07.2 | I think the number one question that I've been getting asked is what am I doing for the rest of the |
| 1:11.6 | year? Like, am I racing? Am I not racing? Am I still injured? What is the deal? Which is very |
| 1:16.8 | valid question because I have not really posted that much about running. I haven't really talked |
| 1:21.0 | about what my plan is, so I figured why not do it in a podcast? I feel like it's just the perfect |
| 1:27.0 | platform to explain myself. So basically, if you don't know the backstory of everything I got injured |
| 1:32.9 | in February, I think it was, I heard my back really bad. It was probably one of the most painful |
| 1:39.5 | injuries I've ever had, and to this day, my PG said it was sciatica, but I have a feeling that I |
| 1:45.4 | might have gotten some sort of stress injury in my back. I've never had a stress injury in my entire |
| 1:50.0 | life, but it just really felt bad, and I never got an MRI, which was kind of stupid, but I just |
| 1:54.9 | didn't want to pay the hundreds of dollars to go get an MRI. So instead, I just decided to rest |
| 1:59.3 | because I mean, I'm a post-collegiate kind of casual runner. At that point in time, there was |
| 2:04.5 | no need to rush back into training or cross-training or anything, especially because it was painful |
