So it has been almost a month since I ran last.
And I am jonensin' for a run.
Why did I stop running if I like it so much you ask.
two words - shin splints that and I wanted to devote some time to learning to swim.
I think I will go to the gym and run this morning and then swim in the afternoon. I gots new shoes. My old shoes had too many miles on them and I think that was the cause of my pain.
*************************************************
update:
I feel bad about my run. I could have run more than 3 miles. I felt so un-tired at the end of my run I felt guilty. But if I had ran more (say 10 miles) today I would be soar for a week (see above - have not ran in almost a month).
My swim went good 10 laps breast stroke in 12 min still slow as hell but better. 150 yrds non-continuous freestyle with a lot of panting in-between laps.
If I were going in chronological order this would be first after my update line:
I got to meet another SG member today, RattFinkPink and her hubby.
Super cool, I got to talk to ratty for about an hour while her hubby played basketball with some friends from work. Hopefully I'll get more time to talk to him next time I see them. For whatever reason the awkwardness factor was very low.

It was nice meeting you.
Thanks for coming to the gym that damn early (even though the pools are closed at that time on Sunday mornings).
