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

After sleeping half the day away I took the dog to the track as is tradition every Sunday.  I was just going to walk but decided to test the waters and assess the damage of yesterdays leg grinder.

I slogged a painful 3 miles.  This little test confirmed that I have definitely pulled something in my left calf.  Hopefully just a muscle strain.  Miraculously my quads do not hurt at all.  My hamstrings are tender and my left calf is down right painful. 

I will ellipticize tomorrow and then reasses the damage.  I do not think this is completely due to the race yesterday but more likely a combination of the race and wearing my racing flats for too many miles last Monday.

Go get 2 bags of ice from the gas station, fill the tub with cold water, dump the ice in, and sit in it for 20 minutes. It will totally suck but your legs will thank for from now every day until St George! :-)

I can't believe you were able to run today. I can barely walk.

I can't believe you can run today either. Definitely give your body some time to recover from you awesome race!! You are incredible!!!!

Eeeek! Nooooooo! Ice in the tub everyday. Then come over and use my electrical output machine for 30 min. It"ll speed healing.
