Decided to focus on speed today. My first mile I tied my personal best at 7:32 and I was pleased with my overall 5k pace. Just need to shave down the pace some.

I've been noticing that starting on mile 6 or so my neck seems really uncomfortable--kind of an achy numb sort of feeling.

Could I be pinching a nerve or could it just be bad form? Thinking about seeing the Chiropractor...

Really enjoyed the run. It's fun to be outside even if the only time I have to run is at the crack of dawn.

Nice 5 miler today. I tried to keep my shoulders loose by wiggling my arms and stretching frequently but right around the 4.5 mile mark I noticed that my shoulders and neck were beginning to tense up again. I've got to figure out how to stop that from happening or it will kill me on my long runs. I have a long one planned for tomorrow so we'll see what happens.

Goal today: 11 miles

Actual run: 3.58 mi

My mom called me in the middle of my run (and of course I answered :-)), and told me she needed help getting my dad to the emergency room. He had some kind of gallbladder attack and needs to have it removed we are told. I'm glad I was able to help out when I was needed even though it came at an inconvenient time. Now I need to get all amped up and try it again another day.
