At the doctors office, resting heartbeat is below 40!!!!!! It was at 39 and then dipped to 38 for a second. Now lets shoot for 35. I think we've solved the problem, I've been trying a new asthma medication and my lung today were a ton worse than before, so I'm getting back on dulera and will use albuterol on race days. I have been trying to force good races to come and haven't been feeling it at all, hopefully this will help change it. I also need to have more fun, just wanting it a lot isn't enough.

8.3, I ran 1.5 on the treadmill and ran 6:15-6:40 pace for the run, it wasn't hard. My back hurt again today, so I will hot tub tomorrow, I really thought that was over a while ago but its ok, I just need to overkill it with hot tub and stretches all week to make sure it gone for good. I have another appointment, this one to renew my military ID that I get for being my dads son, it gets me free food at air ports and is a form health insurance identification or something for when I go on my mission, but luckily the appointment is in the morning so I won't miss practice, also I have two more appointments on Friday, one for a pass port, and another at 7:30 in the morning to follow up on for the dentist appointment today because I don't have a cavity but a tooth that is notorious for getting cavities hasn't gotten one and they want to make sure it doesn't get one while I'm on my mission so I guess its probably a good idea. So yeah, 5 appointments this week... If I have any more for rest of February I'm going to go insane. I'm just glad I won't miss practice the rest of the week.
