"I was fully prepared to walk this off, Dr. H. but I'm here because my mom made me."
"Well let's take a look. So you didn't prepare for this 39 mile walk at all?"
"No."
"Not even five miles a day?"
"No."
"I'm not going to do anything with these blisters, none of them are infected. I'm going to do a CPK blood test."
"CPK? California Pizza Kitch--"
"Creatine phosphokinase, testing you for rhabdomyolysis. It's a breakdown of the muscle that can happen with extreme exercise. So, no training at all, huh?"
"No."
"I'm not going to test you for mental fitness... this time."

California Pizza Kitchen! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on finishing, Lisa!
Thanks, Dr. M! xoxo
DeleteHa!
ReplyDeleteGlad you're okay. May your blisters soon heal. :)
Thank you! I'm on the mend! xo
DeleteOops? :)
ReplyDeleteHope your feet forgive you.
Eventually. Probably.
DeleteYou didn't train at all for this walk? Amazing!!
ReplyDeleteAmazingly not smart!
DeleteAll in one fell swoop you have appeased your mom and amazed the doctor.
ReplyDeleteI'm magic like that. xoxo
DeleteHave you read The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Frye? If not, maybe you should. You're sorta Harold.
ReplyDeleteI hope your California Pizza Kitchen is OK.
My CPK will eventually be TGIFriday.
DeleteThe thrill of victory.
ReplyDeleteThe agony of da feet.
(It had to be said)
xoxox
Really. Nothing will top this comment.
DeleteSuccessfully the greatest comment of the post. [:
DeleteI love The Knadele.
DeleteApply two BBQ chicken pizzas to your feet and call Dr. H in the morning. (That's actually the mental fitness test he's talking about.)
ReplyDeleteI'm writing this down. xo
DeleteNo jokes from this Peanut just sending thoughts for negative results your way on a wing and a prayer.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Cheryl. Everything will return to normal eventually.
DeleteBwahahahaha. California Pizza Kitchen would have been my guess too.
ReplyDeleteWe've got the medical lingo down.
DeleteYou are a rock star. Blisters are a small price to pay.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Steph!
DeleteIt's nice to know he's willing to overlook your (possible) insanity this time. I picked up two feet worth of blisters once walking to end world hunger. I gave up my socks so an older friend of mine (in her 70s at the time)would have more cushioning since her socks weren't as thick as mine. We still talk about that every time we see each other. If I had it to do over again, I would, without hesitation. Good luck. Hope the feet heal soon and the knees don't hurt for long!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mouse. What an amazing friend you are to give up socks! xo
DeletePshaw, who needs training? Next up, I suggest a marathon!
ReplyDelete(of CPK's bread sticks, of course.)
