Less than 2 weeks away from the 50k and I still have pain in my right foot and left ankle. What is going on?! Trying not to freak out and staying off the pavement for now.

Wow this is probably one of the worst long runs I've had so far. It was so brutally hot today. I also pulled a muscle in my right foot so every step was painful. Lots of animals out today - sa... read more

Monique! Wasn't it beautiful! I would love the chance to train and exicute that run again! There were parts of that course that I have DNF'd in the past and I was determind to continue through to the end! I was kindof glad that we didn't have to do the creek crossings! Hope your recovery goes well.

It was a lovely evening for a walk with hubby and the dogs. It got a little chilly towards the end - my hands got super numbed - but a great bonding time with the fam.

great run!!! I hope I can get my dog up to running 5 or more miles. I ran 3 miles with her last Saturday, she did pretty good for the first 2. Generally I run 1 mile in the morning with her. Hopefully her endurance will get better

Yah my beagle can only run about a mile then she realizes this is no fun and starts walking. My other dog the terrier is a great runner but I guess dogs need training too. I keep an eye on him so he doesn't get too tired. I think dogs get the runner's high too.

RUN
good Easy 4 with Myko 4 mi
Used my inhaler before the run. Still had a little bit of a cough towards the end of the run. Went at an easy pace because Myko hasn't run in a while so wanted to keep an eye on him.
