    With my lame foot and my work on tiling my house, I haven’t run or even exercised in a week.  So I got out this morning, before my body knew what was going on, and ran 3.5 miles.  It was nice and cool, around 50 I guess, which really helped me out.  My legs are…

    Well, I was able to go for a second four mile run for the week.  First was on Monday but I didn’t post about it.  The foot pain is subsiding, enough that I canceled my follow up doctor’s appointment in two days.  But it’s still there.  I really doubt I’d be able to do my…

    I did a pretty slow 3.5 mile run tonight to test out of my foot.  I could still feel some tightness in my arch, but not nearly as bad as a week ago.  I’ll probably try to slightly increase the distance tomorrow and Sunday to see what happens.  I feel like I’m on the right…

    On Sunday I did 30 minutes on the Concept2 and managed to make it 5683m.  I think that averaged out to about 2:38 per 500m.  Got winded on it, so I guess I was doing some good. Tonight I did the spinning class.  That’s pretty fun.  Got a decent sweat going and my legs definitely…

    I went to the Walk-In Clinic at OrthoIndy today for my foot pain.  I was barely able to run 4 minutes Thursday night and I had some pain just walking around. The doc did an X-Ray and didn’t really see anything.  That’s good and bad, I guess.  Good because it means I don’t have a…

    I woke up this morning to terrible pain on the arch of my left foot.  Feeling around, it seems like the pain originates kinda between the ankle and the top of the arch.  It was hurting to walk.  I put my cold pack on it for 15 minutes and that helped a little bit.  I…

    Tonight’s run was a six mile-r, well, more like 5.95, but who’s counting right?  Anyways, the important part is that my legs felt pretty good!  It’s very strange how the pain comes and goes.  I sure hope it continues to stay away.  It felt pretty pleasant, around the mid 80’s and the humidity wasn’t too…

  • Some dry heaving while running

    Holy cow, it was HUMID this morning.  Around 85%.  I did some coughing during the first 10 minutes of my seven mile run and it felt more like dry heaving than coughing.  Felt like I could barely move for the whole time, and my mile splits proved it!  My big body just doesn’t like running…

    Been feeling a little frustrated with life today, so tonight’s short 3.18 mile run was supposed to help me blow off a little steam.  It did.  But just a tiny bit.  It was pretty warm, 90 temp / 99 heat index, so most of the steam was stuck inside.  I ran a little quicker than…

    Did 5.08 miles tonight in the heat.  It was about 85 with a 93 heat index when I headed out, and a storm had barely passed.  I could still see the lightning off to the east.  75% humidity, so, yea, it didn’t feel too nice.  But I was smart this week and took a water…
