Took it slow today, my left heel is really bugging. I finally got to the Health Food store and bought the things I need to do the remedy that my NP gave me. I will let you know in a few weeks if it was any good.

2 mile cool down at 9:20 pace

Felt pretty good tonight, no one tried to take my treadmill while I was off it doing my weights. When I was doing my cool down I was in between two barbie girls. I don't understand how some one can come to the gym all decked out like they were. Maybe I'm just jealous because by then I was a big sweaty mess. leaving puddles on the treadmill. It's pretty gross. Seems like they were just there for a fashion show. It sucked being between them. Oh well... at least I could beat them in a foot race, but not a fashion walk off.

Nice run today but boy my legs were tired. My left heel started to bug me the last couple of miles. I took off work today so it was sooooo nice to run in the morning... in the sun shine!!! :) even if this run was a bit of a struggle I still enjoyed it. Now off to do all the Thanksgiving prep around the house!! 

I hope to run the turkey trot at the hospital in the morning. It used to be 5 miles but since they have had to redue the course I think it's only about 4. That will probably be all the running I get in tomorrow. 

Laps: 9:11, 9:34, 8:21, 8:53, 9:40, 9:28, 8:46, (.50) 8:55

Surprised... I thought that I would have been well over 10:00mm because I felt much slower and heavy.

Got up to run the Turkey trot at the hospital, I have participated in this race for a number of year. So I was certain that the start time was 8am. I got there to find out that the race did not start until 9:10??? I think they change then time this year, because I don't remember it being that late before. With that tidbit of information I realized that I would not be able to participate. Between the run and the drive time I would be too late to get the turkey and everything going before out eat time at 2:00. So I donated my food and left. I ended up running my normal parkway loop with a bit added around the city park to see the decorations. All in all a pretty pleasant run except for the lady too busy on her cell phone to control Kujo from wanting my leg for breakfast. I was probably the most scared I have been around a dog in a long while. She did not seem to concerned at all.

Well yesterday was a big goose egg for me. I woke with a headache and a few strong bouts of nausea. No throwing up though thank heavens. I think I had just over done it, I felt better later in the day but buy then I was way too busy with other things. 

Today I was by myself... I'm starting to realize that Sue and I are not on the same page when it come to training. I will probabaly always run with her when I can, but I will need to add more miles on my own if I'm going to train the way I need to, so I can accomplish the goals I have. Anyway the hardest thing about todays run was probably my mental attitude of getting out the door.... and the last mile didn't feel too hot. Other then that a pretty pleasant run. Should have had more miles this week, but I guess I'm OK with it.
