Former Bad Ass
Morning everyone! Enjoy the city tour Lily! I set my alarm for 5:50 this morning but thunder and lightning woke me up at 4. Went back to sleep, will do a lunchtime run today instead. Boss is gone and today's experiment has a long incubation time in the middle, so I'll pop into the gym for a quick strength workout right after the run. WHERE IS DOCKET? MTA: Apparently I started my post just before you posted, haha. I have heard a rumor that Mizuno is bringing back the Elixir this fall - you were another Elixir fan, correct? I will be super happy if this is true!!

I have heard that rumor as well and I am prepared to buy 10 pairs ASAP. Hope the rumor is true.

Another RD. My hamstring pain returned after only a moderate increase in running last week, so I'm shutting it down again. I made an appointment on Thursday to see a person who specializes in sports massage and therapy and am hoping she can help me get to the bottom of my ongoing issues.
Life is good.

No it is not a tu-tu.
It is the contraption you put on to run on the Alter G.

Hi Dailies.
Lily: Congrats on another BQ! I hope you will do a report on your races and time in Boston.
I will get some miles in today, I just don't know when. Life is busy and things happen but miles always help the cause.
Have a good day.
Ooh, a running skirt!

7 of my 11 done with 5.5 of the required 6 at strength pace. I feel lousy about cutting back but I'm sore, tired and cranky. I'm trying to justify it by telling myself that I only short changed my warmup and cooldown. I hope I put enough hay in the barn.

Sorry about the whiney back, Little Blue, I feel ya...my back is giving me signals it's time once again for my spinal arthritis injections, yeah, fun stuff...been procrastinating on it, but I think I better get it done if I want to stay functional. Good luck with the grass mowing - altho you might think about passing on that till your back stops whining.
That's a good thought, except that I do it for a living. And it's been whining since February. Actually the mowing doesn't bother it a bit, and the movement seems to be good for my back. But I would be willing to be a kept woman, if I could!
