taking 2 steps back

So we tried to go for a 10 mile run on Sunday. WRONGGGG! it was sooooooooo freakin hot and humid that it turned into a 4 mile run and a 2 mile walk. Also my knee is still so buggered up! SOOOOOO Frustrating. Guess I need to start tapering for the Cleveland half... boo :(

In the winter of 2006 I had to take 2 months off of running because of a hip injury. It's hard to do that when all you want to do is have a good run. Hang in there...maybe the rest will be good for your race on the 18th : )

Hey, speaking of two steps back...

What ever happened to your Ab Challenge?

I lost a few pounds when I was sick last week and my abs are looking pretty goooooooood! (even though guys are barred from your competition)

Side note: I lost more weight doing absolutely ZERO training when I was sick than I ever did on my most hard core of training weeks. Weird, eh?

Oh well, rest up and drink lots of water!

Take care of your knee. Enjoy the taper, sounds like it is has come at the perfect time. Did you pick up your new car? Enjoy the week.

I've been wondering about the ab challenge too. I hope that your knee is OK.

Gotta have the lows to know the highs...sounds like a little overtraining, rest up and it'll come back.
