| 9 miles. I ran north on 1300 East to 4500 South, one lap around Horse Park (didn't see Jake), up 4500 to Murray Holladay Blvd and home. 7:07 AP.
Good news: No fracture in my foot! Wahoo! Bad news...I have a joint effusion in my right foot. It's been hurting since May (I know, I know...I'm one of those stupid runners who runs through pain). I'm waiting to hear back from my doctor to see what he wants to do. He'll probably drain the fluid and maybe a cort shot? I dunno. I'm just SUPER happy to hear I don't have a stress fracture!

| 8 miles around Murray. It was COLD and DARK this morning. I wore my bright yellow reflective jacket and flashing head light. Gotta be safe out there! 7:17 AP
Still just taking it easy this week. I'm not doing any weights or speed work. It's quite enjoyable.

| 15 miles along Highland, 9400 South (looked for Devra, didn't find her) back on 1300 East and a lap around Wheeler Farm. There were a lot of families getting their pictures taken at the Farm so when I ran behind their pictures I yelled "PHOTO BOMB". I also had two large dogs come charging at me off leash. I yelled at the owner and said some not-so-nice-four-letter-words. He was a douche. 7:05 AP.

| No running today. I went to a different (better) sports podiatrist yesterday. He was amazing! He looked at my MRI and said that he saw the joint effusion (pocket of fluid in the joint of my foot by my ankle) but he also saw something else going on within the joint. He thinks that when I sprained my foot back in May, that a piece of cartilage broke off (which can happen with a bad sprain) and has been in the joint ever since. This is why my foot hurts the first 5 minutes of running and then gets better...our joints "swell" as we run and when my foot joint got bigger the longer I ran, the cartilage was no longer irritating the joint. So he gave me a shot in my joint and said there are basically two things that can happen: 1) the fluid from the shot (it was a mild form of cortisone) could flush the piece of cartilage out. 2)the shot doesn't get the cartilage out, maybe it's still atattched, and I'll have to get it scoped in a week or so. This would put me out a few weeks of running but I'd still be able to get a good training session in before LA. I'm just happy that I'm getting this taken care of. It's hurt EVERY SINGLE DAY since May. I'm pretty stupid for letting it go this long...but runners are a stubborn breed.
I can bike so I think I'll do that for the next few days. See you all later!

| Hello again FRB! It's been a crazy month with my foot injury, illness and a spontaneous trip to Hawaii! But I'm home now and feeling better. I've gotten back into my normal routine. 7 miles today by old Cottonwood Mall and down Walker Ln. 7:17 AP. I started doing my leg PT exercises again this week and holy cow...I'm so sore! Running has been painful this week.
Side note...I've gotta give a big shout out to my girl Emily! Good luck with your race this weekend! Allie, I miss you!
