Little Buddha

Probably won't be doing any running for the next few days, these blisters I have developed on the heels of my feet are pretty bad, still really hurts to even walk. Hopefully they will heal up quick, but I'm a little worried right now. I will probably try to do some cross training on a stationary bike for the next few days. Rode the exercise bike for 45 minutes tonight, my college coach used to count 10 minutes of biking or swimming equal to 1 mile running, so based on that maybe 4 miles tonight. The blisters do feel a little better tonight, so that is a good sign.

Rode stationary bike for an hour tonight, really tried to push the pace would go 10 minutes hard, then 2 or 4 minute easy, then 10 minutes hard. The feet are feeling a little better and walking is getting easier, probably be able to do some light running in a few more days.

Biked again tonight for over an hour, good workout, feeling like I might try some light running tomorrow, blisters seem to to be healing up pretty good, the right foot is still a concern, because the skin tore and the new skin is still pretty tender. The left foot is feeling pretty good.

Was able to get out again this afternoon and run a little, blisters seem to be healing up pretty good, ran easy pace from the school to the Jacob Hamblin home and back 4.0 miles. Legs feeling pretty sore still from the 20 mile run on Saturday and then not being able to run the last 4 days. Meet the club at the park tonight Bill and I did 2 miles easy around the park, before Steve and Clyde showed up, then we ran a version of the Black Hills loop backwards which was uphill a good portion of the time, which added to my difficulties, finished down Diagonal and Main Street, but I was pretty sore for most of the run. Body and legs still stiff and sore from not running much the last few days. However, it was nice to get in some mileage tonight, plus the temperature was nice a little humid, but comfortable.

Easy 3 miles tonight up in Provo, raining and a little chilly, but felt good to get out and run a few miles, legs still sore from last night.

Ran 10 miles this morning down the Provo River Trail to Utah Lake and then back to the hotel, added another mile by running over to my sister's. Felt pretty good this morning and maintained a pretty good pace going out pace was just over 7:00 and coming back pace was under 7:00. Jogged another mile at the cross country meet. Did an easy 3.5 miles tonight over past the Hurricane Cemetary and back home.
