Bumped up to 9 miles this morning.  Not very much fun running in the wind and with cracked ribs.  I was hoping I would feel a little better today, with not having ran Sunday.  I didn't, it felt the same.  It's been one day shy of a week sense I hurt my ribs and they still feel the same, which says to me it's probably more then bruised ribs.

Anyway, I'll keep trotting along at 10 minutes a mile.  Did some push ups (they hurt), no sit ups! Hit the heavy bag and pushed some weights. 

I'll be in SLC training with my department the rest of the week.  I probably won't be back in Bullfrog or comment until Tuesday the 17th.

9 miles.  I spoke with a doctor today who said running with cracked or broken ribs isn't going to make the problem any worse and that they will still heal.  It's just a mater of pain management.  Anyway, that made me feel better, so I'll keep running.
