I love running on Monday mornings.  Last Tuesday was my last 12 hour weekly psych clinical for the semester and it's amazing what having 12 hours of life back during the week can do!  Also, we were able to go on a mini family vacation this weekend and I didn't have to rush home to get a shift in Sunday night like I usually do in order to go on a trip...I had the entire weekend off.  Life is looking up!  While there, I took a nice scenic jog in the 8,000 feet elevation...nothing like running later in the morning, in a t-shirt and shorts, surrounded by lots of snow, watching skiers fly down the mountain. :)

Just woke up and now I'm biding the time with homework and chores for the heat to pass...I don't know how much longer I can supress the urge to do City Creek so I may just have to give in tonight!  I was almost able to take over the entire patient load on my own last night at capstone.  I love being a nurse.  It makes me happy.

No City Creek today (left my mace at Snowbird and I refuse to run in secluded places without some form of self protection! I will get it back today from my mom and try again later)  Started on the east high loop, but my stomach was still full from dinner a couple hours earlier and it was not enjoyable, so I turned around to make it an even 2 miles and walked the rest of the way! LOL

Nice, sustainable pace through the downhills and uphills.  It was enjoyable. :)  I still have tight tendons in my feet and heels (and sometimes my achilles on both legs, but not frequently) especially when I wake up or stand up to walk after sitting or laying down.  It goes away after a couple miles of running/walking.  I'm thinking it's from being on my feet so much with clincals and work?  So my calves are always tight I guess.  I think it will go away once I can start running more regularly and getting more regular sleep.  There isn't any sharp pain, so I'm just not going to worry about it right now.
