Mike is out of town so my friend Nat went with me, she is only up for 5 mi, I was planning on getting up before hand and get some miles in prior but with day light savings I could not get up, so I am planning on going after work and getting some more in and some weights as well. Felt good today, no soreness or fatigue but then again we ran very slow today.

pm. ran 5.6 miles after work, worn tank and shorts, felt blahhh... stomach was a little crampy and both my toes next to my big toe always get blisters under the toenails after races with downhill and sometimes I can pop them but they are too far down and they were hurting on the run. (tomorrow I will have the dentist i work for take a little bur and drill through my toenail, he does it for me alot, it feels so good when that pressure gets released). Well at least i got my miles in!

I didn't get a chance to say it before, so great job at Moab! It sounds like it was fun. Are you running Spectrum this weekend?

Thanks Mik'L, yes I am planning on running it, just got signed up last week. Are you running it?

How nice of the dentist! Odd job perk, but it works! I hope you get feeling better for your 10k!

Oh man that does not sound fun. I cringed when I read that.

Okay, the whole toenail thing makes me cringe! Good luck at the Spectrum 10K this weekend - I'm jealous. Oh, FYI Matt has turned over a new leaf and is exercising...yep, he even ran on the treadmill for a bit last night!!

Yuck! As long as it makes you feel better. You know what I'll be thinking about as I sit in the dentist's chair today.

I assume there is a good cleaning procedure for those instruments...

Cal, LOL!

I'm glad you found someone to run with. I've never have gotten a blister under my toenail and I'm glad. It doesn't sound fun. Good luck with that.
