| Yahooooo, what a great day this has been. I went to the oncologist today, and she said my C.T. scan from last week looked perfect, no new lymfoma, and I don't have to see her again for 6 months. I also had a great 5 miler today. I finally went under the 45 min. mark. I did it in 44:17. At mile 2 I was right on 18 min. mark And felt like today was the day to reach my goal.I just want to improve from here.The last half mile I was a little winded but not bad. I also did 25 min weight training on my lower body. The last few weeks I have felt like I have soooo much more energy. I hope I have finally gotten past the effect's of the radiation treatments. What an awesome day. |

| It amazes me that on the days I don't feel like running I seem to do a new P.R. Pretty crazy. My legs felt really good and strong today, especialy going up hills. At my 2.5 mile mark my time was 23:20, and mile five was 48:41, whcih helps me stay on my goal for this week of keeping my 5 miler's under 50 min. or better. My over all time for the 10 miles was 1:39:41. My wife road her bike with me, it was a little cold. first time this winter I wore tight's. I don't like them very much. I look like 170 lbs of jiggely jello running down the road. |

| Felt alot better today, not as tired as yesterday. I had a better night's sleep and I think that helps recharge the body. My time today was 48:38, it would have been better, but I had to stop and make nice with a dog that did'nt want to make nice. He just wanted to chase me, so I stopped and faced him until he decided I was'nt a threat to him. It took about a min. and twenty seconds to convince him. I also did 25 min. of lower body weight training. |

| Felt okay today. My times seem to be staying under the 50 min. mark for 5 miles. My next goal is to get it closer to 40 min. for 5 miles. It was a nice day for a run perfect weather conditions. My time today was 46:18. I also did 25 min. of lower body weight training. I don't know if I'm ready to increase my Daily mileage yet. Maybe next week.I do have some muscel tightnees in my lower right inside calf. Will try and stretch it out. |

| Usually I can tell what kind of run I will have in about the first mile. Today was a very slow day. My right inside calf muscel is still sore, I did'nt seem to have a whole lot of energy today. My time was 50:40. and I also did 25 min. of upper body weight training. Today I just ran what I felt like my body could handle. Hopefully tommorrow will feel better. |

| I think this week has been a recovery week. My times have been alot slower. Today I just tried to do an easy tempo run. I did get a good 8 hrs. of sleep last night, so I felt pretty good the first five miles. My split time at 5 was 50:28. Total time was 1:47:47. Alot slower than the last two weeks. Hopefully this next week I will begin to feel better. |
