Personal: I am married and have two wonderful kids, 14 and 10. I've been running since 1982. I never get "basic" injuries. I always get the real nasty career threatening kind, like stress fracture of the sacrum, ganglion cyst clamping down on my peroneal nerve. Favorite Blogs: |

| Tonight ran Meadows through Woodridge loop. Didn't do the Octane today during lunch, so it took me a full 24 minutes to get warmed up. IT band was tender as well. By 30 minutes though, I was able to dip down below 7:00 pace. Then dropped down to 5:52 pace for the last 1.5 miles. When I got back, I jogged to Woodrow Wilson jr. high and did an 800 on the track in 2:43. Going to try to do 6x800m tomorrow night. Been wanting to stay off the Octane this week to help with the taper, but I may still need to do it for at least 10 to 15 minutes to help keep things loose, especially with the IT being tight. Weather is supposed to get crappy tomorrow. Tonight was actually 81 degrees. About 6 miles all together. |

| Could not sleep lastnight! Thinking about everything. Thinking about work, thinking about Sundays race. I keep going round and round in my head me getting "bumped" by that car last week. It could have been so much worse. I am really lucky. Tonight the weather went to complete sh*t. 16 mph SSE wind with a steady drizzle, but tonight was my last chance workout for Sunday's race. I did a semiquick 3.5 mile warmup. First 2 miles easy, and then the next 1.5 miles was 6:30 pace. Felt really fresh. Stomach was really bothering. Got on the track and did 6x800m in pretty good times considering it was windy (2:49,2:48,2:47,2:45,2:45,2:43) w/ about a 3 minute rest between. Only did 1 mile cooldown. Was going to do 2, but calfs were getting cold and started cramping up. A good workout. Today was the last hard day. The hard part now will be holding back as I take the next couple of days easy. |

| Legs are completely sore today from yesterday's run. That's what happens when you do 800m repeats with rain-soaked shoes... Did 15 minutes on the Octane during lunch easy. Then this evening, ran an easy 3.25 miles up through Howard Sub. and back. First mile in 7:49!!! Legs loosened up and ran 7:00 pace the rest of the way. IT band didn't bother me at all, but muscles around the area were getting a little tender toward the end. Looks like it's supposed to be 86 for a high on Sunday in Evansville. Good thing the race starts at 7:00! Still, it's going to be warm. |

| Ran an easy 4 miles tonight about 7 minute pace. 7 min pace felt so effortless tonight. Temp really cooled off, 75 to 66. Legs getting really "anxious". Going to be hard to throttle back the next two days. |

| Ran an easy 4 miles with Jacki and Dave up through Campus around Union Hospital and back. Felt really crappy. Had crappy day at work. Just overall tired. Temp nice. IT band did not bother me at all yesterday or today. |
