I'll blog my run after I actually get my run in tonight, but I downloaded the SportTracks software and it's pretty sweet. It gives the same picture as the connect.garmin.com software as far as the points on the map, but I wanted to post a picture of what the Garmin recorded for my 1/2mi Lane 1 track Garmin test and what looked like. The little "blip" on the first corner is correct, I forgot I had to go around a walker. If you shift the whole oval of what the Garmin recorded just a bit, it's fairly close to being on Lane 1. Not perfect, but the fact that the 1/2 mi mark is just shy of the start is pretty darn impressive, IMO. I'll blog more later, but here's the pic:

Oh well, I tried to get google maps to zoom in on the stadium and track, but it's there near the marker, you'll just have to zoom in some to see it. Not that anyone probably really cares, but hey, it's my $$$ that's going to it, so I might as well be proud of it...even if I can't use it when I want to. :-)
I finally got out at 11:30pm tonight. Didn't really feel like going since my legs were feeling pretty lead-ish. But I went, hoping to do 10. The first couple of miles felt great, but it started to go downhill from there. I ran the river trail so I knew it would be flat. I decided I'd turn around at 4.5 miles. I averaged 9:25 or so if I remember right. I was getting my dreaded foot pain about mile 4, so that's why I didn't stick out the rest of that 1/2 mile to make it 10. I was just happy to get back without having to walk much.
I have my next round of injections in two weeks :-( next week, I think, so hopefully that will help more than the first round. Haven't seen much improvement at all with a single dose of cortizone. It's now 2am so I'm off to bed. Nite all!
