| 48 degrees at noon with a very slight breeze from the north blowing quietly. Easy miles today and it was a good thing because the neck stiffened up a bunch after that. It seems like 6 to 9 miles is about all I can do before I have problems. Hoping for some good results tomorrow. | |

| Wow, I actually paid someone to put me through that! He gave me strict orders to either lay down or just sit with good posture tonight. Apparently he doesn't want it to slip out the same day he put it back in. I don't want that either! I will run tomorrow and see how I feel. He did say that it was the most painful adjustment that he does.......ahhhh the things we go through. On a side note: my son who is serving in Michigan will be coming home 2 weeks from tomorrow! We are so excited to see him and see how his service has changed him. In his letters he has some reservations of coming home. That's always a good sign! | | Comments(4) |

| Easy miles on a very sunny pleasant day. Temps in the low 70's and just a slight breeze. Need to go in for another adjustment . I took a couple of steps back today. Pretty sore again. I have been watching what I eat the last couple of weeks due to not as many miles running and I have dropped 5 lbs in 2 weeks without much effort. I am at 143 which is about my racing (whats that) weight. | |

| Another 6 miler today. These are a bit on the frustrating side! Really would like to go further but the neck just tightens up and that's all she wrote. Between biking to work and these short runs, I do feel like I am some what fit. Just doesn't feel the same as running 55 miles a week. Friday another adjustment and I will go from there. | | Comments(3) |

| Pretty windy and cool today...... maybe I am just a whimp, but I ran inside on the tm and incorporated some weight lifting while I ran. I guess you call it circuit trainng. I have some relief in my neck today. Tomorrow is the adjustment and hopefully I don't take a step in the wrong direction. Miles felt good today. | |

| I've been waiting for this run for quite a while. Easy miles but oh they felt good! Very little neck pain today. Hopefully I can get into the 40's next week with the mileage. |

| Easy miles today on the tm. Got home late and needed to watch my son for a while so we watched Andy Griffith downstairs while I ran. Feeling better everyday. It's going to be a great week. My son gets home wednesday and my daughter is coming home from Moscow too. |

| Early morning miles on the tm. Felt really good this morning...... not getting too excited about it because it's probably due to the fact that my son is coming home that I haven't seen in two years........It will be fun to update the profile once he is home! | |

| Nice morning with just a nice breeze to keep it interesting. Steady improvements with the neck discomfort. Slow and steady wins the race? Guess we will see. | |

| Easy miles on the tm on a very cool windy April afternoon. Felt pretty good today. Neck pain is minimal but still there. Not sure if I want to go to the quack every week though.. | |

Ran to work this morning with temps around 37 or so. Took the long route.... nice morning and legs felt good. Beautiful morning in Idaho.
Ran home on a blustery afternoon with temps around 55 plus with some wind. Not a lot of friendly people out today. Lots of motorists doing the honk and one finger wave... | |
