A Rolling Pin By Any Other Name
I remember my former trainer (an Olympic athlete) telling me how she would get daily massages while she was training for her elite events. Since that was before I was training for the marathon, I thought it sounded like a nice way to beat stress. I now know why she required the hands of an expert!
I am not a professional athlete. There is no way that I can afford (time-wise or finance-wise) to keep a masseuse on retainer. A brilliant thought occurred to me during Saturday's run -- I seemed to recall that I have an unused rolling pin in my kitchen. It's not doing much good there, but maybe it would have better luck in the bedroom ;)
Well, apparently I was on to something. PC used it to loosen up some of my muscles and then I discovered that I could actually use it on myself to work out some of the tight spots in my quads and shins too.
I wonder what some of those other things in the kitchen might be used for in real life??

Um . . . I just wanted to point out that the end of the second paragraph there sounds a little bit like the beginning of a Penthouse Forum letter. Although, come to think of it, it might be a good way to up your readership. :)
That is an interesting thought...though rolling pin isn't really my style!
Seriously, though, it is a really good use for the rolling pin since I haven't had much time for baking. And it really does work!
Ah, the old rolling pin in the bedroom trick...
Thanks for stopping by my blog. Best of luck with your marathon!!
