Don't Sacrifice the Gift.

6, PVHS-  Ran down to the HS and decided to do some barefoot to see if it would help my shins not hurt so much.  It worked.  Running on the grass felt so much better on my shins, still hurt, but not as much.  Four miles around the baseball field can be a bit tedious, even with periodically stopping to stretch the shins.  Got home and stretched and iced them up.

7.5, My run-  Firestation desert. One of my favorite routes.  The first half of the run was difficult, shins were hurting and just super tired.  Last half was great, shins weren't hurting as much.  Still laugh at the thought of what must have been going through Mike's mind.    "I thought you said Hippos!"

3, Sndstn-  Ran with my dad and Sophie down to Sandstone Elementary did a mile around the track then ran home.  Not very far, but I want to take it easy for a few days and try to get my Shins to start feeling better.  I've been icing them a bunch and it has certainly been helping.  Today they hurt less than they have been lately.  But still pretty badly.  

6, Washington Fields- Ran with Trev out and around Nickels Peak.  Great run. Shins are feeling a ton better and great to see Trev again and catch up on life.  Towards the end I started to feel pretty tired and junky.  I need to make sure I keep taking care of my legs.
