Lo and behold, I suddenly can barely run a mile without stopping. With no disrespect meant for those who run-walk, I don't, and I don't really want to. But my legs are dead tired suddenly. Surely this didn't happen because I took five days off?

I haven't changed my diet or hydration. I started taking a B12 vitamin and magnesium supplement on the advice of my neurologist and a liquid glucosamine syrup to help my knees, but I don't think that would sap my strength.
If someone starts that group I am SO in. <--- retired="" 100="" &="" 200m="" girl=""></--->
The 5 day layoff shouldn't have much of an effect.

How come the PB's aren't in your log?
