Well Yoda,
There are several reasons for that:
1.No school today, spring break
2. Spent the entire post run Easter day lounging about yesterday while DH watched HOURS of March Madness, so I am happy to be moving today.
3. I have had a sinus headache for 3 days and I woke up this morning and it was gone...
so yep, I was uncharacteristically chipper this am....probably mostly due to number one!

Very windy in Big D today. So I went to the gym and got on the treadmill. I had enough of wind this past weekend.
I always run faster on the treadmill.
I pumped out 6 miles in 60 minutes."Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather, to skid in broadside thoroughly used-up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming: WOW WHAT A RIDE!!!!"

I walk ran 15 min on the treadmill yesterday and 5 min today. I decreased today just because I didn't have time, but at least I got in a little cadence training.
I ached for about 30 min after both runs.

Howdy..good morning...
Did a good run this morning. We have decided lately to concentrate on a more thorough warm-up, so I did my usual 5 min walk and then another 5 mins of skips and hops and silly whatnot and then stretched.
Today I decided to do a 5/1 run to walk on a one mile trail loop. I brought three miles in in 28 mins with the walk breaks. It felt good to move a little faster. I swear it hurts me less.
I was worried because I did 90 mins on my road bike yesterday. Easy, but still longish for me.
I also wore my cho-pat strap on my knee for the first time. I think it helped. They had discouraged me at PT from wearing it, fearing dependency, but I think it helped.
So I think I am as ready as a recently injured runner can be for my first 5k on Saturday!!!!!!
Yoda, sounds like you are getting better. Sorry you are aching. I get tired of the aching part.

Yea, when I stop running on my long runs... it's like the pain just settles into my body and it hurts. Once I hit my time/distance... I start to walk casually... and I can barely walk anymore. It's like my body goes into shut down mode once it's allowed to stop moving forward.
This is why I know at my IM, I CANNOT stop moving forward. If I stop and rest... I might not get moving again."Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather, to skid in broadside thoroughly used-up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming: WOW WHAT A RIDE!!!!"

K, I agree, it is less painful to just keep moving. I just started reading UltraMarathon Man...and last night Dean just finished his frst 100 mile race, the Western States....he talks about coming into the transitions, and sitting down and hanging out...and then having a terrible, terrible time getting started again.
He also described what they eat on the run...blech, belch, barf....pizza, while running...amazing folks...you long, long distance people....

Yea, I feel the same way when it comes to riding. There comes a point where my thighs/quads start to burn and when I stop riding it just hurts even more. It hurts less to pedal at that point. Originally Posted by rocknrollgirl
