The old leg felt pretty good so I decided to head out this morning and the pain level was at 2 to 3 when I started and then it was at a 6 to 7 by the time I was finished. My average pace was 8:49 and a total time of 27:22, I didn't wear my HR monitor so I have no info on that. It looks like I will not be able to get into the doctor until next wednesday so it will be one of two things, a pressure test for compartment syndrome or an MRI, I am leaning towards the MRI as I am not a fan of needles!!! He wants me to continue to be aggressive with my training, well as aggressive as it will let me, so that when I see him in a week it will still be flaring up. No strength training today as I am running out of time, I need to get up earlier so I can get back on track with that part of my training.

See ya tomorrow.

Sorry to hear about the aches and pains Clay. Hope the MRI will shed some light on what is going on and point the way toward how best to fix it.

Bleh, man. I totally stopped a guy outside of Fantastic Sams in Springville thinking it was you all cleaned up. When I realized it wasn't I asked if he had a bro in Salem but he said no. :/

That is to funny Michelle;) I have not seen you forever so I can see the confusion you must be having in the way that I look versus the last time you actually saw me...:)

It wasn't you was it? Were messing with me? Hope the doc can work some magic on you :)

No, it wasn't me. Thanks for the kind words.
