I ran up Loafer again and ran the same route as last time, but when I get to the stop sign I turn left and head towards the mail boxes... My foot was very, very, sore from the get go, in fact I almost turned back about a block or two into the run but I couldn't make myself stop, I just told myself to suck it up and stay with it. When I finished I stretched and iced but right now it is extremely sore, so I don't know what to do! I will see how it goes in the morning and then go from there. My average pace was 9:10 with my total time at 37:35, my heart rate average was at 142... I wish this darn thing would get better, I really feel like I could get some good training in if I could just get past it,  oh well.

See ya tomorrow.

I ran out towards mini GU corner but stopped once I reached my 2 mile mark and then did a walk break for a minute and then headed back for the house. My foot felt good going out but on the way back it started to get sore, iced when I finished and then went and did my lower body weight training on the Bowflex and then finished up with some core training and push-ups... My average pace was 8:55 and my heart rate average was 138 with my total time at 36:15. I felt pretty good this morning but I want to be able to run a little farther but I can't right now, I need to be patient until I get this darn foot feeling better! I ran into Michelle towards the end of my run and she seemed to be doing really well, ah to be young again someone has to be old so it just as well be me!

See ya tomorrow.

I ran out towards Payson via canal road, I went very slow as my foot was pretty sore it felt better as the run went on but then by the end it was really getting sore... I iced it for about 10 minutes when I got home and then did some calf stretching to try and help it, pretty disheartening to still be dealing with this darn thing, oh well. My average pace was very slow 9:08 with my heart rate at 136 and total time was 37:18, also no shooting stars again this morning it seems like ever since the time changed they have been less frequent. Maybe I will have to start running a little earlier, then again maybe not... I finished up with my standard upper body workout on the bowflex low weight with high reps, one set of each exercise.

See ya tomorrow.
