Personal:

I decided to join to hold myself accountable for my training and because I love learning from others running experiences.  I just started running a little over a year ago and have a lot to learn.  I work fulltime as a Manager of Telecommunications for Intermountain Healthcare and go to school online through Weber State University.  If you want to know more check out my blog: www.runningfortrevor.blogspot.com

20 min warm-up on the elliptical, went home and heated the leg for 10 min and then jogged 5 miles.  4 by myself and 1 with Izzy.  My leg felt better today but it is still just an awkward lingering pain like I can't fully extend my right leg and couldn't run faster than an 8 min pace if I was being chased by a bear!  Fortunately I can still out run most of the horses, goats, & llama's I encounter along my loop and I'm incredibly content with running as slow as I need to for as long as I need to. 

I have no idea how I ran a sub-7 pace for 3 hours just 10 days ago.

PM:  Josse massaged and scraped my leg really good for me after work today.  I totally owe her because I feel so much better!  I still believe this weird pain although noticable most in my outer knee stems from my calf.  I jogged for 20 minutes tonight with the pup and almost felt normal.  It felt so nice to run pain free that I wanted to keep going but luckily Izzy completely tuckers out after 2 miles and it was a two a day for the poor pup with the 1 mile this am. :)  Still some little niggles but no pain!

Luckily there are no bears in Payson, or Moab.

Its always funny how after marathons the pace you just ran seems soooooo unrealistic. I guess that's what happens when you peak right for one big race and knock it out of the park. Then your body is like "NOOOO - you are not doing that again anytime soon... even for a mile!"

marathon magic. i struggled to hit MP in a 5k over the weekend, and i couldn't have gone another step if i tried. i crossed the finish line and collapsed into the grass covered in chewed up sunflower seeds from the WJHS football team. and i didn't even care...

take care of that leg, rachelle.

Time to repair and rebuild for a couple of months after all your awesome marathon and other pr s this summer. it's the only way to get faster:)

So glad you were able to get some good miles in :) You deserve to run relaxed for a while!!

Marathon magic---love that term.

Glad you are feeling a little better and very glad that you do not need to outrun a bear any time soon. BUT, i bet if a bear really decided to chase you, some marathon magic would show up.

HOORAY for NO pain!!! :). Glad Izzy was there to keep you from overdoing it! :)
