<p>Morning all</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hope everyone got their trick or treat fix last night.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm glad October is over... was not a very kind month to me.  That being said- looks like I'm gonna log a goose egg today.  I'm just dead tired.  And mylegs are a little sore from Sunday's race.  Getting kinda tired of this cool one day, cold the next weather too.  My hands about froze off yesterday because I didn't pack any gloves.  I guess it will be a little warmer on my runs after Day light savings passes.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Who knows, maybe I'll find some motivation and run a few on the TM later in the morning.</p>

<p>Good morning BBS.  Today will be another rest from running day.  Looking to do some other cross training activites today.  Enjoy the morning.</p>

<p>SRD.  My right achilles tendon was pretty sore yesterday... not sure what's going but may be due to my calf being a bit tight? Doing ultrasound and praying it'll be OK come Sunday.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This morning DD was suffering from a Halloween hangover... she didn't sleep well hence we had significant drama.  Also, I was wondering why my shoulders were a bit sore then I remembered that DD decided to sit in the laundry basket and request that I carry her, which translates to me lifting her over my head.  It's a cheap version of CrossFit.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>BBS</strong> - just rest.</p>
<p><strong>kfuller</strong> - enjoy the cross training.</p>

<p>Looks like a lot of resting going on today. My SRD was yesterday, so I'll be heading out for a "lunch" of 7 miles or so in a little bit. Sunny and 50 out there...guess that means short sleeves and gloves.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>RA - stick that calf! Any time my achilles gets tight that's what I do and it works.</p>

<p>I got in a 40 minute plyometric workout video and then some arm workout for about 5-10 minutes.  Overall it was a good workout.  Now we have snow coming down.  I guess it that time of year.</p>

<p>57mins firm for me today. A bit sore, but felt good for the most part. I love this time of year...just out there running. I'm going to miss this come Jan-April with all the workouts on the track. Have a great day people. Rest well, especially you John - nothing new on race week, so matter how cheap. Heal up now, ya' hear? Excited to see what will happen this weekend for you.</p>

<p>7 miles at lunch. Cruised along at MP until the last 0.5 mile when I dialed up a fast finish. Almost perfect running weather out there today...just breezy enough to create a headwind in a few spots but otherwise ideal.</p>

<p>This morning while doing my bible study I came across Proverbs 4:12 "When you walk, your steps will not be hampered; when you run, you will not stumble."  Oooo.... this is gonna be interesting.  I had a trail run planned for today.  I waited until lunchtime when we had clear blue sky and 50*.  Perfect weather for shorts and singlet.  I headed to the metropark and started with the dog trail which I know well since the hound and I walk it frequently.  The meadow loops were quite muddy, but overall not bad.  The section heading back into the parking area was my downfall.  Literally.  At the last second I decided to take a fork to avoid deep mud.  I stepped on a stick with my left foot and then caught it with my right foot.  Landed hard on my right hip.  Not only that, I stabbed my left calf on the end of said stick.  I did a quick once over and realized I wasn't hurt.  A quick look-see and realized no one had seen me (like the huge mud skid all down my right side wasn't going to give it away?!).  I hopped up and finished that first loop.  The second loop was on crushed limestone and was much easier.  Well, except for the hills.  Not sure which is worse--fear of going too fast downhill or the quad burning uphill.  Whatever.  I have a whole lot of work to do before the 10K trail race in a couple of weeks!  5.5ish miles, 9:30pace</p>
