afternoon - 3 AC.  No morning run 'cause my finger hurt too bad.  Halloween run after school.  Because of my finger stuff, I didn't really think about a costume, but the kids had some good ones.  Run was mildly painful on the hand, but bearable.  I was breathing super hard and struggling otherwise though.  (peg black 632.25)

*On Saturday night, I tried to rip my finger off in the chain of  swing and got a compound fracture of my left middle finger... #bumma.  I guess I won't be hitting my goal of a good solid week.  I was actually going to try and get into the Snow Canyon Half on Saturday and start working back toward some more serious racing in the winter halfs.  Not that I won't still have a goal of St. George and DogTown Halfs, but any hard running will have to be put on hold for a bit.

afternoon - 7.5 GS.  My arm is tired from holding my hand up close to my chest all day and all run. But the run was good and the finger didn't hurt any more than the rest of the day. Didn't use any heavy med last night or any ibu all day. Hurt a bit, but I survived. (Peg oly 158.5)

afternoon - 8.5 BHNP. Warm and cool around some long reps that I ran with the main JV crew. Ran them at 8k pace for a 18:00 5k - which was 5:50 pace. Did 2000, 1600, 1200, 1600. The group did well. Looked like all the groups did well on a physically and mentally tough workout. Finger didn't bug too bad. Always just worried about hitting the finger - plus it is a pain to hold it up high near my chest and to not be able to bend the fingers. But just happy to still have a whole finger!

afternoon - 7.5 DogTown.  Easy run out into Washington ended with 6xstriders.  Good day for recovery from yesterday's hard effort.  (Peg black 639.75)

AM - 7.5 Twix/AC.  Decided to run this morning sice I won't be able to go this afternoon with the race.  Twix was happy to be out for 4 miles around the neighborhoods.  I can get a slight bend at the first knuckle of my finger now.  That, combined with a little more confidence that I won't get it bumped and a little less pain when I don't hold it up, has allowed me to start improving my form just a little.  (Peg grey 144.5)

morning - 10 Prospector.  Just another amazing run in the desert with Twix. I've been a little worried shell done something stupid and trip me or cause me to fall (just because that's what she does, plus I'm holding her on the right side instead of the usual left), but I was able to relax and enjoy a beautiful morning in the desert. (Sense pro 124.25)

Wasn't quite the week I wanted, but it ended upon okay. 

Goals for next week: keep building back into it. Back to the doc on Thurs, so hopefully it's all healing up correctly.
