Felt better than yesterday but still sick. Tried to go out and do a few things with Mik'L around town and a short time into it I was over my head. Got really dizzy and just wanted to be back in bed.

60 min's on the elliptical. Kind of feeling a little better. But by the time I finished up with the workout I was dizzy and light headed. Took a few hours sitting in the chair with a blanket to recover. It's been really cold. 20 F or so the last few mornings. This is the 10th day this winter that my chickens water has frozen.

60 min's on the spinner. Again by the end of the workout I was completely out of breath and dizzy. This sickness is killing me. Plus I haven't ran for over a week but my groin, hip and abs all hurt as bad as they ever have... I don't know. I'm done fighting it. I've been living a dream that I'll just feel better one day. Now I just hope to be able to work through it and be able to run daily again... not to train but for general fitness and joy. 

17 F this morning. I'm done with the super cold winter part.

15 min's on the spin bike while Mik'L was on the elliptical. 

60 min's on the elliptical. Feeling semi better but this sickness doesn't want to leave. 

Went to see April today and see if she could do anything for my hip, groin, hammy, lower ab problem. After a brief conversation and some a short physical examination she said my left leg is 1/2 inch longer than my right leg. Could be the result of all the running on the bad ankle through the summer. And could be the reason for my growing/ endless pain. She said maybe my pelvis is twisted and that I was totally out of whack. So a trip to the chiro is in order. See if he can adjust something. I don't think it will be an immediate fix but there is a lot of pressure down around my hips and now it seems like a no brainer that I should have thought of this earlier... like in September.
