I am married with 3 lovely children 26, 18, &12and a dog named Koda and a cat named Blue.  Love to run and be outside.  I believe that if you think you can do it and you work hard enough any thing is possible.   Life flashes by in the blink of an eye, enjoy it while it last and remember there is a lot more to life than running. I coach high school swim and love it!

I went out for just an easy run with everything feeling good (foot and sciatic anyway, I was quite sore from the race in the quads) and about 1 mile into the run I got a charly horse in my left calf that brought me to my knees.  I worked it out and stretched it and then continued to run.  Know it is very sore and I am limping on it.  Hopefully this won't take me out for to long or I think I will just scream.

stretching and pilates legs.

yoga followed by 50 min on the bike and then arms weights and p90x abs.  Calf feeling better, still sore but I am not limping on it.  Not sure if I will run today.   Trying not to get to frustrated, this is supposed to be my hardest training weeks before my taper.  But then again training plans never go to plan and I haven't really planned much out this year.

Got up and ran to test the calf, it felt okay. Decided I would go see Dr. Brady and get some injections. DId that today and it is sore from that, but hopefully it will be gone by the weekend i need a 20 miler.

stretched and did pilates legs.

Went up to the GS camp with Melody, Rebecca, Amanda and Marie.  We ran down the canyon, calf was feeling good before I started I could feel it a bit through the run and is a little sore now after.  Hopefully this is not going to be an issue till the marathon.  Pace was pretty good for the run and we were all chatty through the run as well.

1:15:10/7:26 

Now hopefully I can make it through my 20 tomorrow.....

Met Mckenzie, Aubrey, Amber and end of HC half course.  Drove up to about the 3.5 mile mark and ran up 4 and then did the course and added on at the end.  I was really tired through the run but made it and my calf held up.  Now just one more long run and I should be good to go for the marathon, how fast I am not sure, but I will be there and try for a sub 3:20.

2:38:58/7:57  happy with that.
