Build weeks continue, in which I am saved by massage therapy
Soooo…my right hip has been getting TIGHT…..every day tighter and tighter like a wound up top. My Massage Therapist worked on it last week, and I guess he succeeded in getting it ok enough that I ran through the week, and weekend. This morning though, I really was not wanting to walk at all. I …
Tuesday
On going saga here of back pain and strain. It has affected me a bit. I’m just tired from the effort to hold myself up all the time. I’m tired of having to think before I move. and I am kind of tired of planning things perfectly so I don’t wrench out my back again. …
OK so.. WTH
Can I admit…. I swear I have a stupid black injury and pain cloud over my head. After I wrote my entry for yesterday my back just got tighter and tighter. I noted that I was having trouble walking. I knew it was obvious because my poor poor long suffering dog was giving me the …

A variety of people lately have told me that they “Love my highlights” and want to know my hair dresser. I direct …
Day 43 Marathon Training. Unhappy face

what the heck…..
So this is my week. That 10 miles looks so exciting but it is cycling not running. I had a pretty awful running week. I ran 3.3 on Wednesday which was an excellent progressive run. I’m ignoring the last 3 minutes! and I ran 3 on Friday which was an OK run. I went out …
9 mile burn
Yes, I managed my nine miler today. Our “hurricane” Tropical Storm is turning into a Non-event for us. This is of course simply because I purchased the requisite hurricane supplies. Every time I get in the least bit prepared, Nothing happens. I had an inkling of this because when I was running today, I saw …
