Met up with Sheridan and ran up 21 and down sunnyside. Good to be back running. Some stiffness in the neck and shoulder but for the most part I feel fine. Wondering how much fitness I've lost over the last couple of weeks. I'm such a slacker!

Had some in issues with my ITband this run and I am not too concerned about it. This happens when I take some time off and try to jump back in with mileage. We'll see how things play out monday. Glad to be running again....

4 pain free miles this morning. Put the itband strap on and had no problems. This is usually the case when I have taken some time off. Just need to go easy for a while.

50 and lots of wind this afternoon. Ran with my itband strap and felt fine. Just slowly building daily mileage. It's bringing some dark colored gunk in my lungs that I didn't fully get rid of from my cold that I had. Feels good to be coughing up some gubbers.

Ran in the afternoon today with temps around 50 degrees and some wind. It was tolerable for the most part. It's nice to see warmer temps! I haven't been totally lazy the last couple of days. My neck has been a bit sore and I have been doing stretching and yoga. Wow, I said the y word. I have been doing some core work and some light lifting too. Hoping that I continue to mend. Strenghtening the core and upper body should help some. I am banking on that right now.

It was a winter blizzard this morning so I opted for the treadmill. 5 easy miles and then some light weight lifting and stretching afterwards. Neck, shoulder, and arm area feel better than they have for a loooooong time. Hopefully good things to come!

Ran some hills repeats today. Still improving as far as my neck and shoulder issues. After 3 miles, my left arm starts aching and then goes numb........ weird! Doing weights and light stretching

60 degrees and very little wind, in other words in a grand day in eastern Idaho. Just think that a couple of days ago we had a blizzard. Did some hill work and felt pretty good for the most part. Nice to be running again. Shoulder and neck still hurt some.....

Ran on a cool afternoon with some good ole Idaho wind. Got some good miles in except for the fact that my neck is in all sorts of discomfort. Pretty frustrating right now. Legs felt good and all.

Just some easy miles after work this afternoon. Temps in the low 50's with just a little bit of a breeze. I need to go to a back quack to get this neck issue resolved. Just don't like to go to all that bother...... this has got to go

Got the run in before the wind came up. 50  pleasant degrees. Just slowly building the mileage back up. Slow and steady wins the race...... or atleast avoids an injury or two..
