10 miles this morning around the resort and parking lot and stuff. Very little blood today so far and the pain in the chest was small. Actually this is as regular as I've felt for over a week. We will go to Typhoon Lagoon the water park today and then pack it up and fly home early Tuesday morning.

5.4 mile run this evening. We had a good day at the waterpark and came back to the room around 4 p.m. After almost feeling fine this morning I had a semi-bad pain in the side/ chest during the run tonight. I also started spitting up more blood after getting back to the room... So I guess it's a good thing we fly out in the morning. I can get home and find out what happend to my body. I'll have to get up at 2:30 a.m (Utah time) to get to the airport and catch our plane.

Woke up at 1:40 a.m Utah time and started getting ready for a long day of traveling home. Flew from Orlando to Salt Lake and then from there to Vegas. From Vegas home we drove. 

After getting home we went to the track end-of-year party and BBQ at Dave's house. It was fun but now that I'm finally home and it's 9 p.m there is no gas in the tank for a run.

Still packin all the symptoms I've had so I'll be talking to a medical Doc tomorrow. But unless he forbids me to run I'll still try and get my miles back up so I don't get  too out of shape.

12.3 mile morning run. Regular old overpass loop. Ah back to the same ol' bump and grind. It feels great to be back home in the STG. The run was good too. I mean nothing record breaking but it was a 6:56 pace for the run- pretty good for me in the morning. I had almost no pain at all in the chest this morning but there was a fair amount of blood. To be honest I'm a little scared to find out what's wrong...

8 miles this evening up around GS and back home the long way around Middleton. I had a bad pain in the side/ chest for the first 2.5 or so and then it worked it's self out and I felt pretty good.

6:36 avg.

12.3 mile morning loop. I did the overpass loop in revers to mix things up. I didn't have a watch or garmin on but I could tell by the way I felt that the pace was scary slow. Just a little blood so far this morning and no pain- This stuff is about as random as it gets.

10 miles tonight with the club. A good solid run tonight 6:36 avg for the trip. There is a lot of good talent down  here and it's fun to get everyone together. It will be really fun to have Dustin and Steve O. on the run too (who were both absent tonight). Everyone is excited about the summer and now all we have to do is stay healthy and get through the heat.

1.5 mile run this morning. 

Not exactly what I had in mind. At the end of last nights club run my right quad (inner right on the tip) started to hurt a little. So I went home and used the stick pretty  hard on it. Anyways this morning I headed out for the standard loop and about .4 into it I had to stop and stretch, and rub it. I tried to push through and finish the workout but shortly after it was too much and I just had to walk back home. That was pretty humiliating- I've never had to walk home from a run before.

So I'm not sure what the deal is- At this point I guess I'll just look at it as a blessing. We are moving our office to a new office building today and I'll need all the energy I have for the move.

Honestly if it's not one thing it's twenty- right...

I guess this means I get a goose egg. The quad is still really sore. I may try a few tonight after the sun goes down and it cools off.
