I did not want to get the goose egg for the week, so I went out running.  I just took it nice and easy.  Here's the real story.  It all started on Mother's Day.  We made breakfast in bed for my lovely wife.  The problem was, I have so many kids, and each one wanted to make her something.  So we ended up making her far more food than she would be able to eat.  Waffles, pancakes, scrambled eggs, egg mcmuffin, oatmeal, cereal, and some kind of marshmallow creation my 6 year old made.  So on Father's Day my wife decided to return the favor.  I had eggs benedict, pancakes, sausage patties, sausage links, bacon, chocolate milk, tomato juice, Tampico, oatmeal, and scrambled eggs.  I'm sure there was more.  I did my best at eating all of it.  That's when I noticed the chest pains.  I wasn't sure if I had a small heart attack, so I've been taking it easy.  Then it started to feel the same as when I strained my rib cage.  So I thought maybe it happened when I wrecked my bike.  Anyway, I'm stupid for not going to a doctor, but Chuck Norris would never go to a doctor.  With Michael Jackson dying this week due to heart failure, there's one thing I can learn from him.  That is don't trust the girl next door.  She might not be your lover, but she could be a girl that claims that you are the one.

I did the first 3 miles on my own.8:47 average.  Then I took Katelynn out for a run.  She did 0.63 miles at a 14:59 average.

Hey Burt I'd go the dr just 2 be sure! My hubby not been good for sometime high blood pressure was the start, he's lost over 2.5 stone but his b pressure never came down, so he went the dr some 100 tests later he has problems high cholestrol, hr rate high ECG wasn't great and liver problems.,.. He had no symptoms just the high b pressure no chest pains or anything, he is an arbiculturist so he's a tree surgeon! Lots of manual work etc, he has to go back for mote tests, but I got him

some organic herbs that are real good for cholestrol etc it's working his b/p is now normal and he cycles when I run most nights but waiting on more tests! So honestly he was a heart attack waiting to happen please go the dr please :-)

It was probably the food. But still take it easy. If it hurts during running, stop immediately and go the doc, ok?
