Running to stay sane

9 miles on the dirt at Wheeler Farm. It was heavenly. The weather was perfect and I felt pretty good. That is what happens when you don't race balls to the walls :) 7:17 AP.

8 miles along 6200 South, Murray Holladay Blvd, Cottonwood Ln, Walker Lane, 5600 South. "The Dream House Route". 

I had an MRI yesterday. Waiting to hear back. I might be taking a real break from running for a while :(

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. 

7 miles around Murray. 7:30 AP. 

Good luck to everyone running SG tomorrow! The conditions should be perfect! Enjoy the beautiful scenery! 

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.
