Saturday….
Saturday… Despite the Drama of Friday…Saturday was a pretty good day. I continued my taper of the Neurontin. I’m at about half the dose, I can tell because my foot and calf are somewhat tingly and that’s unpleasant, but it does tell me that there is still a problem, which is important. I took the …

Oh My how time has flown. I have been at a conference in Ohio and was too tired to post. Once i got over being tired, I was in misery and shock over the Boston Marathon situation. Breaks my heart. So this will be a short catch up post about the STUFF I have done. …

This week is an unusual one. I have to travel on Saturday, so I am rearranging most of my workouts. Today, I found my lefty that is usually sore after the long run was feeling pretty good. So I thought well. I’ll do Tuesday’s workout on Monday etc. Tuesday was 3 mile run and some …

Day 43 Marathon Training. Unhappy face
It’s a rest and recover week, until Sunday when I run 17 miles. I’m not feeling very good today. I attempted a 2 mile run and really the ankle just could not take the pounding. I stopped running on the pavement almost immediately and tried it on the soccer field. No dice. Lucky me, I …
Marathon training Day 36
Sooo, today was a 3 mile run on a soft surface. Yeah. My left lower leg is just all jacked up. I could have done the run. My leg always loosens up after a mile of a hopping gait. Sooner, I learned if I stretch it. BUT..You know. this is not normal. I decided the …
Running on land again.
SO yesterday I did an easy run 3 easy miles… In 88 degree heat near 100% humidity. Forgot my Singulair. coughed a lot but it made the run very easy since I had to slow on down. All in all it was a fairly good run. Right after, I hit the massage table. Mona worked out …
