Only time for a shorter walk. Stayed with pavement, but felt OK walking just as did yesterday. I still can't lie down but feel OK moving around the rest of the day. What seems to matter most if my breathing or talking. I guess the Fineview stepathon crossed some kind of line with my breathing rate. I guess something that was irritated first during the bike crash. Coupled with my back tightening after Dr. Ed, when I started pushing up Textor school rd. on Wednesday that crossed a major line and my side blew out. I don't know how long this is going to take until I can run again. I am fine moving around, but not even breathing the little bit harder I do when I walk. There is a marked improvement in how I can move and walk from last week. A huge improvement, but I am still so far from being able to race in less then 2 weeks at Sweat for Vets.

stretching and step-downs with directional single leg squats.

Walking with Gail and pushing Claire in Bob on Bike path at Ohiopyle. Felt good to travel, even if I couldn't really do anything great in the woods. We just walked 4 miles on the bike path. My side felt fine walking, but talking and breathing really bothered it.

Went for very slow walk with Gail and Claire on Harmony Trail. Side is slowly improving in how I can move around. I can't lie down or sleep at all and but my back feels better on the weekend. I still feel side in every movement, but I am not quite as guarded as I was at work on Thursday and Friday.

I tried a short walk on trails up on the ridge. I may have made it in total about 200 meters. My side just could not handle the steps. My bike is killing me at work and killing me trying to sleep. I can't even reach over to use the phone for calls at work. I have never experienced anything like this. I feel like I am swollen all over. My side is so vulnerable. I can't do anything.

Wanted a great fall run after Dr. Ed. with a great climb up the Textor Hill dirt road. I got half or so. I got a beautiful fall day and a nice 2 mile run, but then my side exploded 2 miles in like nothing I have ever experienced. Every movement walking the rest of the run hurt immensely. I could barely move the rest of the night.

tried 20 minute spin at Y. Felt awful. was falling apart just getting over 200 watts.

after getting off the bike I moved over to the ARC trainer and did 20 minutes, which was better.

stretching and rolling. Straight leg lifts and clams (only right leg, still cant lie on right side). Swelling is still big on that right hip and whatever got really irritated on my right side is really bothering me when I lie down.
