Yo.
A year ago today, my groin exploded during a 6 mile easy run. It was week 12 of MRT and four days later I took a DNF.
I ran 7 this morning and returned with my boy parts intact. There will be no marathon this weekend and I am A okay with that!

Hello, Internet friends! Yesterday was a Monday in many ways and I am just glad to have gotten through it. Happy to report a slight improvement in my leg situation. I was back to some glorious exercise this morning with a 2300 yard swim, sans kicking. Yay pull buoy!

Started my drive to work and my low tire pressure light came on. Stopped to put air in them and saw a nail. Now waiting at the repair shop. On the bright side, at least I saw it before I got a flat, especially working in the hood. Will run after work.
LRB, glad the boy parts survived.
Baboon, good way to get in a workout with no legs.
Super B****
AlterG 7... if I'm lucky, I will finally get to swim tonight. It's only been a month. Wonder if I still remember how.

Took three days off, ran 5.6 miles last night. There were hundreds of kids and parents on my grandparents' street and in their neighborhood but Jetta did great. She didn't freak out or growl, she even met my cousins, their kids, my grandparents and an aunt and uncle. She is such s a good, stinky girl.... been smelling like skunk since Friday so I gave her a bathroom this morning.
This morning Jetta and I ran 7.4 miles.

Good morning I
60 min on the elliptical. I am on day 4 of a round of Prednisone, and my foot feels great. I'll probably not ruin that by running in the next few days.
Have a great day folks!

Does Jetta turn into a nut with three days off from running or do you exercise her other ways too?
6 x 2 minutes @ 6:10 mpm w/2 minutes recovery, 35 minutes total.
Yesterday I went to see the doc for a routine checkup. When she started asking about me pee, I immediately said I drank plenty of water and kept it a light color. She was surprised, and paused for a second and two, and told me her patients never talk to her about how they keep hydrated. She was going to talk to me about my prostate.
I kind of wish I was running Monumental
....she can get a bit restless... hell all weekend she was driving me crazy wanting to go outside and stay outside. She was quite happy to get back to running last night... which is another reason I chose to run the roads this morning and not hit the track, so I could take her.
Cool. I don't. You can have my bib. lol
Mayzie always wanted to be outside and was happy to just lay in the yard. Bruno only wants to be where I am and if I let him outside and don't go with him he sits by the door waiting for me to come play with him. If I don't, he starts flinging himself against the door.
If he doesn't get enough exercise, he grabs his crib mattress sized dog bed and flings it around the room, throws his ball on top of my laptop keyboard (he knows how to put it into airplane mode and disable the touchpad), or he steals things of mine that he isn't supposed to have (socks or even a sweatshirt or anything he can find) and make sure I see him do it. He is content to relax and chew his bone or just lay around if he has gotten enough attention/time/exercise for the day but if not, he is a monster.
