Totals for 24 & 25 Feb 2010

Well I thought this week would turn out a little different than it has. Not too much running due to a trip to the ER on Tuesday. I have hydrocele but the pains I have, have nothing to do with hydrocele. It feels more like Epididymitis. But I have killer lower back pain and it feels like I have been kicked in the boys! But they did an ultra sound and took urine samples and they said they didn't find anything. Maybe it has to do with the weight gain once again. I haven't ever felt like this before. It could be the extra weight on my back that is putting pressure on my nerves in my lower back and my junk. So I will continue to take Motrin and continue running. I feel a little better when Heather and I go for walks in the morning because it seems to loosen my back up. Then right after our walk I go for my run. Then I want to get in another walk sometime in the night on my days off. On the 24th I we went for a walk of 2.3 miles. On the 25th I did a total of 8.63 miles and that included my run and walk. I didn't get in a night time walk because I always fall asleep when I put the girls to bed. But I have to start somewhere again. I think March is going to be my "Cold Turkey" month. I have set a goal for myself to lose 20 lbs. that month. Billy said it takes 28 days to create a habit so March is going to be my habit forming month. I will keep a food log and try to get in some mileage every day. I am glad that the warm weather is finally starting to come back. Just Run.
