It was a warm morning at 43 degrees with a 16 mph wind. I was warm by the second mile, because I really over-dressed. That's okay the more I sweat the more calories burned. I ran 8.32 miles at an overall 7:29 pace in 1:02. I felt crappy on the whole run. My abductor/groin/thigh whatever hurt (I know where it hurts but not really the root of the problem yet). My knee had sharp pains at times (which was do to the fall on Monday, because it hurts right on the cuts and bruises). My foot really didn't hurt, but it's still not a 100% either, it does have some dull pain to the touch. My body just didn't want to run even with 9 hours of sleep the last two nights. I did rub some MYO MED on my inner thigh last night. My body is basically falling apart limb by limb :-). That's okay it will work itself out and you have to have patience and a good attitude. I don't need to race to make me happy. I just like staying fit, and I can do other exercises if I can't run. Life is too short to worry about falling behind in your training or not being ready for a race. I'll we need to do each day when we wake up is give our thoughts and desires to the Lord and the day will come out okay. I would rather have the Lord be the first thought in the day than running. I can't take my accomplishments with me, but I can take God's word everywhere. I probably won't run Saturday or Sunday to give the body some needed rest. It's just to broken down to train. But like I said that's okay. Time/patience has it's way of bringing success back. Lunch Sit-ups and Push-ups.
