Starting a new training cycle is hard.  I have been having meniscus issues with my left knee for the past year, and i have been running very little because of the sharp pain i get when i push off. I have also gained 25 pounds.   I transferred to  the Cottonwood Marathon because i am in no shape to run Mt Charleston in less the a month.

Issue with back spasms.  It just about took me to my knees.   The pain began right between the shoulder blades and got worse.  Lucky for me Dustin helped massaged it out.

Tough 6 Miles on the road.   The only thing positive about this run is i actually ran.   My knee hurt the entire run.  Because i was compensating for it.  everything else hurt.    I was glad i did attempt to do a long run.  I usually get drooped out of town and run in 15 miles or so.  It would of been a disaster.
