    That is a good one!
    I made a Priest-heavy Playlist for today.  8.5, nice and steady, and lots of Priest.  I'd not listened to a few of the songs in a while and it made it mire enjoyable.

    Nice! As much as I love running, without my love of music, running would be much less enjoyable.

    I got my trigger point injection today. Dr said I can try running this weekend. I'm hopeful this does the trick. Leg is a bit sore today, so hard to tell right now if it is helping or not 
    How are you feeling today?

    I enjoy music when I'm running at the Y or on a treadmill, but I just can't do it when I'm running on the road or a trail. I think I'm too paranoid, lol. Also, I hate carrying my phone.

    I have earphones that I started using in the last year that are outside of the ear as opposed to in ear.  I can hear cars or other runners/bikers, while still getting loud music.  If I want to totally crank it I can't hear but when I am road running I keep it so I can still hear.

    Only complaint is that when I get very sweaty the touch controls are not great.  (Can't dry my fingers on my clothes if they are all sweaty)
    At times i do need to pull off my armband, take out my phone and make whatever change I want, then put back on.
    I don't even notice the phone is on my arm with the armband.

    Merry Christmas running buds.

    Any running related gifts?

    The wife and kid got me a massage gun, some Injinji socks and some shorts. And I managed a short Christmas run to make room for 🍗 and 🍺

    Merry Christmas!

    Some running socks, calf compression sleeves, and a headband so far.
    We are headed to VT to visit my family tomorrow and I'm pretty sure I have something worth sharing here awaiting me there.  Will share, if so.  No run today, running tomorrow  efore the drive and then will run 3-4 times up in VT, find some good hills.

    Got a theragun and some blood flow restriction cuffs (legs).
    However, this bad boy is my favorite gift of last....well, maybe forever, that was not from my kid or an experience/trip type of gift.

    Hyperice 
    No need for ice or heat stuff any longer for the knees.
    This does it all, or both as part of a contrast treatment.
    Can walk around with it on.
    App controlled.  Even better than imagined.
    For someone who needs to regularly ice their knees this is FSM sent.

    The last 3 or 4 weeks I've been running but taking it easy, today the year ahead began... Marathon training has started, that's followed by more ultra racing/training with the main goal being the robinhood 100 miler in September 😬

    Go, go, go!
    Signed up for a NYE 5k tomorrow at the request of my sister's 17 year old son, who we are visiting with in VT.
    Temp for go time is 27 degrees.  It lightly snowed today so I just want to see good footing available.   If it is too slick I'm not sure I trust myself to run slowly/safely.  Don't want to crash!

    Good luck with the training. I’m glad you got a little break beforehand.

    Have fun with the 5K. I hope it is not too slippery. 
  • Ugh, I thought things were trending up, but after PT on Wednesday my leg was as bad as ever. 

    Today it feels some better, but I'm not sure that the shot did the trick.

    Yikes. Sorry to hear that. I hope it continues to improve. I know these things can take a long time.
