Well today was not a very good run, my shin was bugging and then I had to potty stop about every mile for a potty stop. AGHHHH! Things did not feel good today, but I slugged out 6 miles :)

I guess there is one good thing, my team (a couple girls from work) drew out for the Moab Half YAHOOOO should be a good time. I fell totally lucky, this is the second year we put in and both times we got in. 

6 miles - 52:00

Tonight was a little better, still a bit of tummy trouble, but not bad. I took some meds. so my knee/shin didn't bug me too much. I thought I was running a bit faster but my time show that I was a bit slower today.

I went to the gym today, I didn't take any meds. and I wanted to see just how much it was bugging. I made it two miles on the tread mil before I could not take it any more. So I did three more miles on the eliptical. 

I think I will try to do a bit more cross training until I go to the doctor in a couple of weeks. I also went to a natural heath place today and had some scans and stuff done... I guess will see if some of this will help me feel better. 

Did n't time my run today.

Tried to get in more but it just was not possible, been having lots of muscle fatigue and just plan tiredness. I start some new thyroid medication in the morning and some other supplements so hopefully things will turn around. 

Just was wondering if any of you have opinions on homeopathic medicine?
