| Somehow messed up my back yesterday doing laundry, cleaning up, things like that. Back let go as I bent over to pick something up. Pretty miserable for the rest of the day in spite of ibuprofen, Zanaflex, stretching, a whirlpool session (in lukewarm water) and a hot bath. Fortunately, was able to get comfortable enough to sleep, and felt a little better this morning -- emphasis on little. More ibu, more stretching, still no better, and I noticed that sitting down seemed to make things worse. So decided to go for the old therapeutic run at the AC -- 48 laps around the jogging track. That made things better, somewhat. Pain level now a 3 or 4, where it was 7 or 8 last night. I guess I'm going to have to keep moving today rather than sit down and stiffen up. I also wish they'd get the whirlpool fixed at the club. Lukewarm doesn't get the job done. |

| Thought the back issues were going away when I got up this morning. Felt pretty good this morning, maybe a 1. Seeing 34 patients at work took care of that. Needed a whirlpool session, then a 4-mille rehab run on the DM. Looks like I'll have to deal with this a while longer. |

| Ran around Branson. Needed ropes and a Sherpa. Place is HILLY. And humid, at least today; kinda sucked the life out of me. Thought it was going to rain on me and cool off; instead it cleared off and warmed up. And the traffic was a major issue, with often no sidewalks or shoulders. Plus there was a bear attack. But got through it. Supposed to cool off overnight. |

| Hit the treadmill tonight while waiting for Pam and Tyler to arrive for the birthday celebration. Decided to do a tempo run -- 1.5 mile warmup, 2.22 at pace (8.1 mph) until the DM told me to stop, then restarted it for a recovery jog to finish the 5 miles. Was actually cool enough to run outside, but I was on call and concerned about another bear attack... Bear stayed away, anyway, and finished the run nicely, then met Pam and T at Branson Landing for his birthday dinner. |
