    Back at it here. I went on vacation and ran only once in two weeks so it was tough to get back into it this week. When you don't have much mileage, cutting back a little feels like a lot. But I'm back in it. In the past, that would have been the quitting point for me so that I'm still running is pretty big for me! Especially in this NC heat. Going to start half-marathon training in a few weeks so still have that goal ahead.

    Great work!

    And, agree, those pictures of where folks are running look amazing!

    Back in my hometown for a week for vaccation. Ran with my brother (for the first time). 


    That looks like a beautiful place to run 👌
  • Ran with my brother again

    Looks awesome.   Good work!

    This heat we are having is brutal.  I weighed before and after an 8 mile run on Saturday morning.  Lost 6.7 pounds during it.  :lol:    drank loads of electrolytes and water to replenish that.
    Did 2 runs at the beach on sunday....a 5 mile banger, solo, and then a 2.5 mile jog with a bunch of family.  Was fun to jog with them.
    Monday off, back at it again this AM
    Wednesday morning run and then back at the shore....gonna run that gnarly bridge Thursday AM.  Shared pics last time I did it, I think but will do so again if I can.

    Fun in the (crazy hot) sun!

  • Great jobs guys! 

    Sorry I've been missing on here. I've been injured again for the past 6 weeks, got injured the week after my 5k (which I finished 3rd overall in).

    Xray was negative on my pelvis, had an MRI today, pretty discouraged right now. Was planning on my first marathon in November, but that is out the window as I don't feel like I'm anywhere close to starting back running

    Ugh! Sorry to hear that. I hope you heal up soon. Sorry about the marathon. On another note, will I see you again at any of the upcoming PJ shows?

    Thanks. MRI didn't show anything, will see what the next steps are.

    We are going to hit Noblesville, you?

    Too hot to run/jog!  I can do up to 105, but beyond that...no way!

    Well damn, I pulled a muscle in my back yesterday and it's killing me. Started taking Aleve 12 hour back pain med yesterday (otc). I was curious what others take for back or muscle pain if you take anything. Minor stuff, I don't take anything, but this is pretty bad. My PT says the symptoms are only that of a pulled muscle but as I'm going out of town tomorrow for four days, I won't be able to actually see her until the end of the week at the earliest. Hopefully this is much less severe by then.

    Have had back issues in the past and didn't take pain medication they provided as I didn't want to do something that made it worse with the pain masked.
    Hope you recover quickly.

    9 miles this AM, hot as balls. Included was back/forth on the bridge,  got some good elevation in.

    been ticking over for a couple of months now but tried to keep my mileage up, starting to get back into training mode now for a couple of events in the autumn/winter. 11 miles today with a negative split, felt great

    Nice work!

    Did the treading water thing for 1h 50min today.   Will hit 2 hours next Sunday.  Hardest part was that I had to take a leak for the last 35 mins.  sprinted out of the pool when time was up.  :lol:

    Lmao, great job. 

    I went to the Orthopedist yesterday, need to do PT before insurance will allow the next tests to be covered. He said it could be something with the hip labrum. My discomfort has gotten worse in the past week even though I'm still resting it. Hopefully I get some answers soon.

    Oh man, I hope you can get some answers soon.  Not knowing sucks, so hard.

    Did 11 miles this morning...so humid.  Should have gone out before sun came up....or probably skipped the martinis last night.  Slow but steady.  Longest run of the year, feels good to start to build back up.

    My wife and daughter are in Czech visiting family so I've decided on a couple of nights camping in North Wales Fri/Sat to get some beautiful running and hiking in (and some solo red wine drinking at camp)

    Cannot wait to spend some time in this beautiful place
