Yup 5 measly miles @ 8:39 pace.  Just before mile two my chest went into spasms and I had a time breathing through the pain.  I ate lots of salad with some raw broccoli and this is not good for me.  The pain radiates from the front of my chest to my back right where your heart/esophagus is.  Not a heart attack.  Just esophogeal spasms as then I began burping and burping but it also felt like my vertebrae were not aligned right and that they were pushing down on some nerves through my chest.  I had a lot of exposure to chemicals the last 24 hours and have been quite nauseated from them.  Chemical sensitivity, fibromyalgia, craziness you name it that's me. I had to get a woman to help me on my run this morning.  She was just leaving a friend's house after her run.  I had her try to massage the point in my middle back that was spasming.  She wanted to drive me home and her friend wished her EMT husband was home.  I told her this has happened before and about my fibro-like symptoms.  She told me her husband worked for a rheumotologists and knew that fibromyalgia worked like that so at least she was understanding.  Any way journeyed onward for the rest of my light run.  The pain waxing and waning and since I knew I wouldn't die I persevered.  Goal is to run easy all week.  Work four nights before the big 50 so I need to rest up.  This run will have 5 to 7 miles of snow running!!  The director just wrote us and will let us know more details after he runs it this weekend.  The most miles of snow they had was 4 years ago (10). The average is 1-2 miles and the least was only 10 steps!!!!  This is getting more interesting by the moment.  I plan to take the blind approach.   What I don't know won't hurt me.  I do this in the nursery as well when I am admitting babies.  I'd rather just have them send them down as they are born or called when there is an emergency then stare at the labor/delivery computer screen with lots of names of mothers and how close they are to delivery.    I am basically going to run that way.  Run Free or Die!!!!  : D
