I had a rough run wednesday and Thursday. My deep lower back on the right side is killing me. I emailed the massage therapist to get and appointment and some advice in the meantime.

It actually hurts more when i step lightly on that leg. I ran six on a trail yesterday, and though it did not feel delightful, it did not feel as bad as walking! That was followed with plenty of ice and some IB profen.

My foot fell asleep while I was running yesterday. I do not take that as a good sign

I have to fly to a conference this weekend, and if there is a pool I might do a little swimming instead of running this weekend!

I have a twelve mile run as my long run, so maybe I should let myself recover some and do that monday on trails when I get back from the conference.

This whole marathon training is very emotional! Some days I feel wonderful. I feel like I could run forever, and I feel like I could do it next weekend and be fine. Other days something really hurts and I am terrified of being too injured to keep training. Anyone else feel this way during training? Maybe I am over reacting
