*Take-away of the day from SXSW 🙂
Good Monday Morning to you all! I’m still here in Austin (yes, learning bits to come!) and I’m learning a ton.
In fact, I’m wishing I’d come into this entrepreneur, dreamer, vision, marketing obsession much earlier in life. It’s exhilarating and hopeful and awesome.
On the frustrating side, I’m having such a hard time being active. It’s making me feel a little guilty. As you may know, it’s tough eating healthy at a conference — not because there are no healthy options because there are so many unhealthy options! Hello Tex Mex, BBQ and room services greasiest quesadillas. So I’m feeling a bit out of control. But I’m doin’ okay.
I packed three sports bras and plenty of workout clothes. As I write, the only ones I’ve used are the yoga pants and Reebok zip up jacket I’m currently wearing to write.
Comfort matters. I know — what does it matter when I’m soaking up all this rad knowledge? I’ll be back to normal soon! In fact, I have some news on that front.
I’m Getting Back Surgery
After months of chiropractor, then physical therapy, three cortizone shots and no running or CrossFit (since September) since November — it’s time.
I’ve made the decision to have back surgery. It’s fairly noninvasive and is only a 45-minute surgery with no overnight stay. My doctor assures me it’s very common and recovery is not even a week.
I have already heard the back surgery horror stories. I know there are risks to everything but I’m confident in this decision and my doctor says I will literally be able to run after a week. Hallelujah!
As I silently cry over missing the L.A. Marathon yesterday, I find solace in the idea that I will hopefully be training to run a fall marathon.
I’ve learned a lot in this process — namely that proper stretching deserves it’s due time an diligence. Also, proper form is absolutely essential when you are working with weights and that core power matters. I know I’ve learned from this and I am looking on the bright side.
Week in Workouts
Monday: 3 mile walk, 15 min. elliptical
Tuesday: 30 min. elliptical, arms
Wednesday: REST
Thursday: 20 min. elliptical, 15 min. bike, arms

Do you ever struggle with working at conferences or out of town events? Have you been to SXSW? What was your favorite workout of the past week?
Awesome that your surgery will get you back to running so fast!! That is amazing!
I remember needing my 4th knee surgery and putting it off and being in pain for MONTHS, then having it and literally waking up from surgery without pain for the first time in forever (then the meds wore off and I had the surgery pain… but the injury pain was GONE)!
Good luck!
Thanks Liz, that makes me feel good! So true!!
Sending you lots and lots of healthy healing vibes. I'm sorry that you have to have surgery but glad to hear that the recovery time shouldn't be too long. It's frustrating when you body doesn't cooperate and all you want to do is move in the way that you want and love. I have a hard time eating healthy when traveling for work, especially conferences! Can't wait to hear what you've learned at SXSW!
Thank you so much, appreciate it! I hope I can convey lots of great knowledge from my time here!!
A quick recovery and minimally invasive sounds great, good luck to you!
I agree, thanks for the well wishes!
SENDING HEALING AND POSITIVE VIBES for you back surgery. Happy to hear that you will be back up and running in no time!
Thank you thank you! Can't wait!
Thank you so much! I'm feeling positive about everything! 🙂
Yowza! Good luck on your surgery– I know it will work for you and you'll be back at it in no time!!
Thank you so much! I am in good spirits about it!
Hey Erica! What type of surgery are you having? I just had disc replacement surgery a month ago. If you have any questions, feel free to email me!
Thank you Katie! I don't think it's a disc replacement although I can't remember the name of the procedure right now. Thank you so much, I may have questions for you closer to or right after. Appreciate it!
Dying to hit that conference one of these years!!! I can only imagine how scary back surgery is! It sounds like you've looked into it and this one is probably not that big of deal, but still sending you lots of good vibes
