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.

Plodded along about the same as the past two days. Nothing to eventful, just trying to get things feeling better.

Got a late start at my run this morning. I have not been feeling to well. But i finally put on my shoes, with the hope that it would not be a bad run... No such luck :( I had sharp pains in my calf for the first 50 or so steps, then it mellowed to a dull ache. By about the mile mark it was dull enough not to bother me too much. Then around mile 3 my legs felt heavy and tight, all in all not the best first run for 09. Hopefully it will get better from there.

So because the shin was buggin all day after my run I thought I better not push my luck so I went to the gym and did body pump class (hour long weight lifting class) I have not done it in a looonng time, so it kicked my tush. Then I did 30 minutes on the eliptical. I'm getting bummed about my running... hope I can recover to do the winter training series.
