Ho,ho,ho!!! I couldn't take today off from working out. Most think I'm foolish, but I call it committed. Had a great breakfast, received some awesome gifts, and got the home and food ready for Family visit. Good times!!!:kicking0:

3 mile negative split run in the bitter cold.....Brrrrrrrrrr

My goal was to hit 10:30, 9:30 and 8:30 per mile splits; actuals were 10:48, 9:22 and 8:13.

After my cool down and the drive home, my lower back began to get tight...I haven't experienced this particular pain in months. Now, my left hip is super tight and I've been getting sharp pains in my back. :crutch00: I may have to take some time off and listen to my body.....This is an unexpected setback but I need to take care of my body.

[B]REST DAY[/B]

My back is still out of whack, so I've been applying heat/cold packs and attempting some stretching. My only real relief has been using my Miracle Balls.

Hopefully, this doesn't set me too far back....No pun intented:(

[B]REST DAY[/B]

I was feeling a bit more limber today, but holding to my plan of resting my back for a while. I used the Miracle Balls some more, and light stretching. I may have to pay a visit to the clinic, if the pain persists.....
