Getting Better,Better All The Time...

I really felt good this evening.Run went well and I can only attribute this to an other new pair of shoes.I bought 2 new pairs of shoes yesterday and today I used the second pair and they felt great. I really ran farther and longer and I still had some back pain but not too bad and I was able to finish strong .Just going to rotate shoes every day and perhaps I will start my "2 a days" tomorrow morning but I don't know,It is a real bitch getting up and I really do not want to press my luck and injure myself.So we shall see when the morning comes....

Nothing Better Than A New Pair Of Shoes !!!

Now that's more like it !! I ran a couple of times last week but not really good runs.Back pain is still there and I really tweaked my right calf the last run. Running intervals on a hill and on my sixth time up the hill I heard a loud "snap" and felt something "pop" in my right calf and that was it game over. I limped back to my car and took it easy for 2 days and then hit the road again and the calf felt fine but the back pain was still there so today while I was out I stopped by Big 5 and bought 2 pairs of running shoes and I tried a pair out on the hill and it is a major improvement.No real back pain and I felt good through out so now I am going to try "2 a days" tomorrow.I just have to get up ....

KING OF PAIN !!!

What A rough weekend ! I ran Friday ( sorry no post) and it sucked.The back support is not working at all .Intense pain all throughout the run and it was just a miserable time for everyone.Took yesterday off and then ran again this afternoon and it was not too bad still pain and I had to walk a lot but still got it done.Planning on running tomorrow too ! Just hope that I can gut it out!!!

Sometimes,It;'s good to be the King......

I think that I have a solution to my constant back pain /seizing problem.I bought a back support and it seemed to help some still a little pain involved but it was not too hellish and I did turn in a pretty good run ! This morning I am going to really try and run before work and also again when I get home from work and then possibly twice everyday during this 3 day weekend !!!Party On Wayne !!

EverythingS Groovy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What A Great Run Today !!! I took the past 2 days off to rest my back and legs.I started out ok and settled into my run and just ignored my persistent seizing back and just ran.It worked and I went even farther today and still feel really good now ( 2 hours afterward).Beers for everyone and the first and last rounds are on me !!!

What The F*@& !!!!!!

I just do not understand this.My back is not getting any better in fact yesterday was probably the worst run I have ever had in my entire life. My back seized up pretty bad that I had to walk most of my route and today was not any better.I even tried a muscle rub first and bought some new inserts for my shoes and still nothing.I think my next step is a tens unit !! I will not give up the fight I will run through this pain until I can no longer walk the way I see it it has to get better NOT worse !!!

Havin' A Great Day.......

What A Day!!!After waking up numerous times early this morning I finally got up at 9:00 and fooled around with my computer and then I went for a great run at noon.It was sunny & warm and I really felt great. It was a great run to say the least! I am really feeling it and I feel as if I am making progress .I shall begin tomorrow morning on 2 a days as I think that now is the time that I "kick it up a notch". I know it might be a little too soon but I think that I have pushed myself enough that I am able to handle this change the trick will be in getting up every morning to do it.We shall see tomorrow.....
