Personal: I am married and have two wonderful kids, 14 and 10. I've been running since 1982. I never get "basic" injuries. I always get the real nasty career threatening kind, like stress fracture of the sacrum, ganglion cyst clamping down on my peroneal nerve. Favorite Blogs: |

| Did a record 8.55 miles in 45 minutes on the Octane during lunch today. Started out hard and maintained it. Held HR 168-172 the whole way. An hour later RHR is still at 80, still rehydrating... No pain at all during workout. Intermittent pain an hour later, but in the middle, not anywhere near insertion point. "Progress" |

| Today at lunch did 45 minutes on the Octane, felt really good but didn't go all out. 8.00 miles in 45 minutes. No pain at all during workout. Later in the afternoon at work, started to have faint intermittent pain. So far hasn't bothered me this evening. |

| Tonight did a pretty solid 60 minutes on the Octane, 10.26 miles. This after having gone to the dentist today. Mouth in a world of hurt, but made it through. No pain or irritation during the workout. Still have bouts of tightness at random times of the day. |

| Today was a tough day dealing with this injury. Had intermittent pain throughout the day... Tonight did 60 minutes on the Octane, 10.44 miles pain free, although did have tightness toward the end. 3 hours later, everything feels great. Going to try some light stretching. |

Today, did 15 minutes easy on the Octane during lunch, 2.49 miles. Then tonight after work, did a pretty solid 60 minutes on the Octane, 10.28 miles. Really took discipline today to stick it out the whole workout, but made it. No pain or irritation during workout. On a good note, RHR was only 48 this afternoon at work :)

| Today did a pretty solid 30 minutes on the Octane during lunch, 5.28 miles. Then this evening after work, did another 60 minutes on the Octane, 10.28 miles. Legs felt pretty decent today, just 3 hours of sleep lastnight. Legs are getting a little sore. Just intermittent bouts of irritation a couple of times today. So, still making slow, but good progress and most issues now are just irritation and tightness in the general area, including piriformis. |

| Did a really good 99 minutes again on the Octane this evening. 18.12 miles, most I've ever done in 99 minutes. HR 144-156 the whole way, all while watching Diamonds Are Forever w/ Austin. No pain or irritation at all during workout. Had a couple short-lived bouts of pain earlier in the day, reminding me things still aren't all quite right yet. |

Only made it 15 minutes on the Octane. Just didn't feel well and the last two days' workouts finally caught up to me.

| We to the NCAA Championship meet today to watch the races. Ran probably about 1.5-2 miles spectating on the course. Totally awesome race and a lot of fun. Only ill effects I felt was soreness in my piriformis, now later this evening, intermittent bouts of pain in adductor longus primarily near top of hamstring. |

| Ran a pretty tough 2 miles in a cold and breezy drizzle in 14:07. First mile out in 7:18. Adductor longus didn't hurt, but is noticeably weak. |

| Ran a pretty tough 3.25 miles from home up through Howard Subdivision and back in 24:20! Legs and lower back are sore from yesterday. Lot of tightness in butt and upper hamstring starting out, but not in the adductor longus. First mile in 7:54, last mile in 7:14. Quite an effort for that pace, but extra 11 pounds makes a huge difference! |

| Ran from Twigg's, starting out on unfinished part of Heritage Trail then down to Hawthorn Park for a small trail-only loop and then back. Total time 38:38, roughly 5 miles. Quads are really beat up. No pain at all during run. Later in the evening, left side of back and whole left hip area really tight. Everything pretty much out of balance right now. |

| Tonight did a really tough 60 minutes on the Octane, 10.03 miles. Really really sore from yesterday. Whole body sore, like I ran a race yesterday. Had tightness and irritation in adductor longus in the middle of the night. No pain today. Piriformis and adductor longus sore. |

| Ran a pretty tough, yet solid 6.5 miles from home down around Collet Park and back in 47:33. Had 24:42 half way. Quads are so so beat up now. Actually started feeling more "efficient" the last two miles w/ the last mile in 6:45. Got to stop at Collet Park and stretch at my Collet Park Tree. Whole upper left hamstring very tight and weak feeling the first mile. Cardio wise, felt awesome. Cool 32, light breeze, full moon. |
