Tue, Dec 02, 2008 | | Total Distance | | 7.00 | My run felt OK, my right knee and shin started bugging towards the end. It's weird, cuz a bit after I stop it seems fine. Slowed down a bit at the end. 7 miles - 1:04

Wed, Dec 03, 2008 | | Total Distance | | 7.00 | Didn't sleep to well last night. But my run actually felt a bit better then last night. I was just a scad (meaning Mili. secs.) faster also ;) I need some prayers and good vibes to go out to a co-worker of mine. She was heading home last night from work and was in a horrific accident. It is not looking very good right now. 7 miles - 1:03

Thu, Dec 04, 2008 | | Total Distance | | 6.00 | O my mom called right before I left work, my church house is having a display of over 500 nativities set up for Christmas. She wanted to go so I ran at the gym so I could make it fast. Lately I seem to be at the gym more. So I had to potty at mile 3 and forgot to stop my watch so I don't know what my time was. Mom was happy with my and it was a fun Christmasy thing to do with her. 6 miles.

Mon, Dec 08, 2008 | | Total Distance | | 8.00 | Had a crazy weekend... and didn't get a run in. I think I'm having some sort of mental block when it's coming to my weekend run. Or on the other hand I might just be mental :) Had a pretty good run tonight, a bit of tummy trouble at the end. I felt a bit slow and I think my time shows that also. 8 miles - 1:12:36

Wed, Dec 10, 2008 | | Total Distance | | 7.00 | Well tonight I deliberately slowed down, I have been having motivational trouble by the end of the week so I was thinking if I slowed it down, and took it a bit easier I might have more gumption for the weekend. But I have to say that it was not fun, I wanted to run faster and at times had a hard time holding back, I also didn't take any anti-inflammatory meds. tonight and my knee was a bit achy, not bad... just annoying. 7 miles - 1:06:27

Thu, Dec 11, 2008 | | Total Distance | | 5.50 | Well my daughter had a concert tonight so I knew that I had to hurry to get my run in, and of course my tummy decided that I could not hurry :(` I swear every mile I had to stop to potty, it was not a pretty run. But at least I got some miles in! Her concert was fun and Christmasy, so I enjoyed it! 5.5 miles 52:01

Fri, Dec 12, 2008 | | Total Distance | | 5.50 | Well tonight was pretty much a repeat of last night. Potty issues and all. I will be running with a new group of runners tomorrow so please keep your fingers crossed that my tummy issues won't bug me in the morning. I don't think I was to leave a bad impression with them :) 5.5 miles - 50:45

Sat, Dec 13, 2008 | | Total Distance | | 5.60 | Today I was able to hook up a run with some new people. I found out much to my dismay that they were very fast. The one guy that invited me was nice enough to run with my, but I was still pushing myself to at least look like I could handle it. By the time I don't think it was that much faster then I normally run, but for some reason I had a hard time. It was a slight down hill, then we turned around to have the slight up hill on the way back AGHHH!!! I felt like a cow :( 5.6 miles - 50 min.

Well today was not a very good run, my shin was bugging and then I had to potty stop about every mile for a potty stop. AGHHHH! Things did not feel good today, but I slugged out 6 miles :) I guess there is one good thing, my team (a couple girls from work) drew out for the Moab Half YAHOOOO should be a good time. I fell totally lucky, this is the second year we put in and both times we got in.
6 miles - 52:00

Wed, Dec 17, 2008 | | Total Distance | | 5.00 | I went to the gym today, I didn't take any meds. and I wanted to see just how much it was bugging. I made it two miles on the tread mil before I could not take it any more. So I did three more miles on the eliptical. I think I will try to do a bit more cross training until I go to the doctor in a couple of weeks. I also went to a natural heath place today and had some scans and stuff done... I guess will see if some of this will help me feel better. Did n't time my run today.

Thu, Dec 18, 2008 | | Total Distance | | 5.00 | Tried to get in more but it just was not possible, been having lots of muscle fatigue and just plan tiredness. I start some new thyroid medication in the morning and some other supplements so hopefully things will turn around. Just was wondering if any of you have opinions on homeopathic medicine? 5 miles - 45:56

Mon, Dec 29, 2008 | | Total Distance | | 5.00 | Didn't sleep very well last night. I decided to run on the treadmil to see if my shin would not hurt as much as on the road. It still bugged for the first two miles.
I had an appointment with the doctor today, he ajusted my insoles and gave me a perscription, wrapped my calf and I go see him in a couple of weeks to see if this will help. 5 miles - 45:53
