Run
  • 2h 58m 30s
  • 15.97 miles
  • 11m 10s /Mi

At the river with E.P.

15.97 miles....trying to get 16 under 3 hours...should have paid more attention to where I was running than how fast I was going.  Tripped on a root...reverted to my gymnastics days and tucked for the tuck & roll.....landed on another root shoulder pops out, I tighten up and it goes back in...get up w/ BIG knot on the top of the shoulder joint.....3 hours in the ER = Dislocated A/C joint.  Possibly no running for 3 weeks.  Going to the orthopedist tomorrow and the ER doc talked like he might have to do a surgical reduction on the dislocation.  :(

That's all I got for now as I have some Really Good Ass-Kicking Drugs VERY HIGH QUALITY Pharmaceuticals that I must ingest in order to maintain my sanity.

We Shall See.

4:00 a.m......WTF.....AGAIN.  I do prefer this to those that sleep 20 hours a day though.  I still have the energy to work and train,so it is getting better and I can tell that I am headed in the right direction.

Youngest son and his wife are coming over for dinner...on the menu:  roasted pork tenderloin w/ citrus glaze, wasabi mashed potatos and zucchini w/ parmesan....toasted pound cake, with vanilla ice cream.

Really liking the new job and the people I work with.  Compliment from the boss yesterday.....that was nice...haven't had one of those from anyone in a while.  I got invited to the annual fund raising Oscar Night the center puts on....Black-Tie Affair.  Not sure yet but I think I am going to go....could be fun and may be a great way to meet some folks.

Everyone getting hit by these latest rounds of storms please be careful out there.

I am seriously going to have to get a new phone.

$179 (after rebate) for a phone that will do 1000 things I don't need but is the best one for the 3 things I do need......OR.....$65 to upgrade the battery on my current POS.  This is even obvious to me.

Run
  • 1h 24m 30s
  • 8.00 miles
  • 10m 33s /Mi

Ran on the ING Course. Very nice run for about 5.5 miles then EP had some more GI "issues" and we had to stop at a bathroom....At D.Q. of all places ;).

Finished strong and felt great after.

No Ice Bath after the run today...spent 1 hr.+ in traffic on the way home.

Not as productive a day as I would have liked but I did see my youngest opening day of baseball season for the college he plays for.  He didn't pitch today as he is slated to start one of the weekend games.

I am super satisfied with some of the closure issues I wrote about on Monday.  I have a clearness that I have not had in QUITE SOME TIME.  Thanks to BB...you are the best.

Didn't run today and I'm not happy about that.
