Favorite Running Quotes:
1.
"Sooner or later the serious runner goes through a special, very personal experience that is unknown to most people.
Some call it euphoria. Others say it's a new kind of mystical experience that propels you into a elevated state of consciousness, a flash of joy.
A sense of floating as you run. This experience is unique to each of us, but when it happens, you break through a barrier that separates you from casual runners. Forever. And from that point on, there is no finish line. You run for your life. You begin to be addicted to what running gives you."
~Nike Poster
2. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
You’ve no doubt heard this. And you’ve probably recited it in your mind on a run or at the gym when you’re just beginning to get in shape. You have a goal in sight and this quote brings you back to the current moment.
But the problem is that many runners forget all of the steps between the first one and the goal. If your goal is to run under two hours for the half marathon then you need to be honest about all of the little steps to get to that goal.
You should have goals, but you should take it one step at a time. And you should be honest about the fact that you don’t know how many steps it will take to get there. ~ Vernon Gambetta
3. Human beings are made up of flesh, blood and a miracle fiber called COURAGE! ~ George Patton

| I had PT on Wednesday. Since I've started running, my old high hamstring tendonitis started to flair right back up. The PT aide that I worked with is a pilates instructor as well and really helped me under true core strength which may help the hammie. I'm ready and willing to learn. But I'm tired of draining my HSA account.
However, I'm starting to wonder if I will really be able to run again. Marathon and ultra run. I'm not sure my body can handle it. I'm definitely not turning the towel in yet. But my goals and priorities may start to change.
While in Mexico last week, my SIL asked me how my recovery was going. I told her about the above. My son overheard me and said, "Mom don't give up yet." One day at a time - one step at a time.

| Dr Cooley said he wanted me back on the trails. ALRIGHTY!!!!
Tim and I headed to Potato Hill for a few non-techincal miles. I walked the downhill/rocky parts. It felt SO wonderful to be back in the mountains even though I out of shape.
TT: 1:02 - AP: 13:02
Post run - my knee feels good, but is very tired. There is no pain.

| 300 N toward Forbes - I ran until the halfway point then walked a minute. The knee felt good, but I'm just terribly out of shape. I can start to feel my high hamstring and my right hip flexor pull. It gets discouraging. AP 11:50.

| 11.65 mile bike ride in 54:08 via alpine hwy-MCT-LP HWY.
I'm still a bit nervous about riding hence sticking to the MCT. And it's tricky to ride without my cycling shoes. I certainly don't feel as hammered as if I ran for 54 minutes.

Ran at Potato Hill today. There was a youth mountain biking club and about 100 kids on mountain bikes. Geesh....I felt like I was going to be trampled!
Knee felt good, but definitely tired by the end.
