I hear ya Zoom. I'm becoming a slave to my log. If I see too many rest days in there it looks like missing teeth. There's too many blank spaces lately.It really sucks too because my knee is acting up (runners knee) and my first mary is in 18 days! ps- you can still do a graph and see it there in all it's glory!

Oh, Joe...take care of that knee! I was plagued with knee issues from May through all of my marathon training. I still get twinges now and then. Miserable stuff. I hope your knee is good to go on race day!

Thanks for the kind words Kirsten. I think I should be ok by then. I have also looked at the knee excercises you recommended.

Everything is going wrong, it’s not right anymore I can’t seem to log the miles, like I did before Big Red Bar, 26.2 gone from my totals last Big Red Bar fading into the past Miles are hanging in balance, sinking low and so am I How I gonna loose these Big Red Bar blues Big Red Bar, Big Red Bar, Big Red Bar blues Long miles to log in red glory is worth everything It’s worth more than diamonds or gold But this heart grows cold thinking of Big Red Bar sinking fast How I gonna loose these Big Red Bar blues Big Red Bar, Big Red Bar, Big Red Bar blues (with my apologies to Lucinda Williams...)

I hope the exercises help you. They certainly can't hurt. I don't know that they did much for me...my issue was more the need for more stability. My right leg seems to twist funny...almost like my right foot want to angle-in/pigeon-toe. OTC orthotics help, but I'm thinking that I should probably look into prescription ones at some point.

Guess you'll just have run another one.

The glass is more than half full... in another couple of days, all of your other runs will look much taller.

Change your colors. I changed mine to hot pink and now I'm so blinded that whenever I look at my log I can't even see all the empty spaces. Big grin
