Ran 3 miles today.  It went really well, but had shin pain after the run.  

I know this is a bad idea, but I am going to keep moving forward with my running and after my race I will go back to the Doc.

Didn't get my run in until 9 pm the other night.  Boy does it get dark fast!  I was about 1.5 miles out and had to turn around because I couldn't see a thing!

My hubby was getting worried about me so he met me about a block from home on one of our little electric motorcycles and rode beside me the rest of the way home.  It was fun to have him with me.  I can't get him to run with me but maybe I can get him to ride with me and he can be my water and food guy.

I have had really no pain today in my leg today.  I am hoping that it will stay that way.

Got new running shoe last night.  I am really excited about them!!  They have a sensor that is in the shoe that syncs with my ipod and keeps track of how far, how fast , how many calories I burn.  I can track all my workout online and set music for my workouts.  I am mostly exited about being able to keep track of how fast I am running.   It may be really depressing!  I can't afford a Garmin :), so I am hoping this will help somewhat. :)

I was hoping to go out this morning but didn't happen.  Didn't get to bed until 2 am.  Saw the movie Inception last night.  It was very entertaining!  A little confusing at one point but you figure it all out.

Hoping I can get out tonight to run. :)
