Still battling some stomach issues after the race, I think the biggest culprit is not sticking to my diet.  I sort of have a "free" weekend.  Not good, so back to my healthier lifestyle.

 Did one mile barefoot  on the treadmill walking at a 16 min pace.  I am having some toenail issues after the half.  I think this is what will be holding me back in my recovery.  Shins are where my muscles hurt the most except for the inner/upper right thigh twinges every time I bring that leg forward.

Goal this week-Keep moving, everyday!  Hoping to be able to run the dam half marathon in Rexburg next month.

Okay, my problem is I'm missing part of a toe nail lost to running injuries and it's sensitive.  I don't think my toes have ever been stopped on so much in all of my life but they have been.  No running today, I'm still quite sore from Ogden half, but I did paint primer in my new addition and played for about an hour on the wii.  (new toy)  Boxing, bowling, baseball.....I think I might have burned a couple extra calories?  Two miles tomorrow for sure, I am going to try shoes again and I think I will be fine unless I lift up my big toe and it hits the top of my shoe.
