I ran out to Mini GU corner this morning and then back to the house, I felt pretty good but I tried to keep things easy today and not push it to hard. On the way back with just under a half a mile to go I started to have stomach issues and so during that whole ordeal I had to stop and walk just to get through it! I just barley made it home in time, if you know what I mean, I felt like Harry in Dumb & Dumber! Turbo Laxative baby!!! My average pace was 8:45 with my HR average at 143, total time was 52:42 so I think I accomplished the easy run today. After the run I jumped on the elliptical for 15 minutes at a moderate pass and then I finished up with my lower body weight training, so all in all it was a good workout.

See ya tomorrow.

It is good to read that your sense of humor is back. Those stomach issue can be a real pain in the bottom. Way to keep things at an easy pace Bro, You need those days just as much or more than your speedy days.

Clay, no dumb and dumber, funny, that was gut buster. Good consistent run, gu corner? Is that where you hide your gus? Always wondered.
