Did 7.01 miles at an overall 7:10 pace in 51 minutes.  It was 22 degrees outside.  I have no desire to run on a treadmill... I don't like the way it makes my form feel and I believe it hurts my stride and running.  To me it doesn't feel like a real run because  I don't run the same as I would outside.   So I will continue to bare the weather, but it doesn't mean I will never run on one again.  

Ran on my Saucony Kinvara shoes. I have over 300 miles on these shoes.  I would like to see if I can get 1000.

Ran with Barry for the first time in a while on fresh powered snow with it still coming down.  It was very, very, slick!  We took the 6.41 miles easy at a 8:30 pace.  I did not want to fall.  We did choose a hilly route by running up to Olympus Rd. than turning back down.

Snowy and windy today with the temperature at 28 degrees.  Did 8.05 miles my sciatic nerve or hip is starting to bother me again.  I hope this does put me on the shelf.

Finally got the leg to not hurt  after the first couple miles and did the last two in 6:50 and 6:49.

I don't see any long distance run in the future if I can't be pain free.

Fall twice today really hard on some ice trying to be safe around vehicles actually hurt me worse. Swollen ankle, bloody knee, fell the second time with my arm out trying to caught the fall. No weight-bearing on my left arm, and bruise on my hip. But I knew I had to get back to take my kids to school. Somehow I ran 6:42, and 6:28 the last two miles. Did 8 miles in 1 hour but I'm paying for it. Arm is hard to move.

Went to doctor's office last night and took x-rays and the PA pretty sure I have a small jagged hair-line crack near elbow, but it was swollen and was hard to tell.  She said she would have the Doctor look at it the morning.  She told me I can't run for a week.  Like that's going to happen.   I will wait Monday.  Hopefully, its not fractured and just swollen.

 I guess this will give my hip, knee, ankle and the sciatic nerve (which has been acting up again) time to rest.  Guys, it's real discouraging when you know you've come so far and just keep getting little setbacks.  Part of me says quit running altogether and do something else.  But I love the way running makes me feel.  There's no greater accomplishment than coming home from a long run in the mornings.
