I wore my knee brace, so that was good, my knee felt good until the last two miles but it held up. it felt good!! :)

Wed. I did a nice workout and the eliptical for an hour.
Thursday, i ran 2 miles on the TM. Thrusday afternoon (9/15) i left work early as i was soooo sick. I was having a lot of pressure on my left side of my face. (sinus)
I stayed out of work Friday and went to the doctors. she gave me some flonaze and said it was a viral sinus infection. :( ohhh i was down for the count. the medicine kicked in and i slept. Saturday was our towns Yankee Doodle Homecoming. My Alumni Association had a boot and i was in charge so from 8 am to 4 pm on saturday and 8 am to 2 pm on sunday in the booth. it wasn't too bad. DH (darling husband) helped me out with the tent along with my dad.... babysat GS#2 ..... oh and DH took GS#1 out in his rental mustang convertable, hahaha... he was soooo excited... i had to share that. Anyway, as you can see i am caught up. I know it's getting closer and i am not training well. Time to get my game on. haha...

WEEK 8
Well, last week sucked. I managed to get in 2 miles on two different days, then five miles walking.
oh dear.
Anyway, today i got in 10 min on the bike and a 30 min work out in the planet fitness 30 min workout room. it was a good work out.... i am still in some pain. ugh. i have a colonoscopy on Thursday. I am so excited. hahaha ... I am all set with my room and plane tickets for december, now i am working on a meet up with my internet running buddies. :) now that will be fun!
My colonoscopy was fine. the stuff they give you to remove as much of your waste as posible is interesting. ha. I chose not to mix it with anything. It was salty, but fine. the not eating anything was hard, but i got through it. After it was all said and done, I am fine and will not have to go back for another one for ten years :) yeah.
So that was 9/8/11 (the colonoscopy) I worked Friday and ended up running on Sunday I ran three miles and felt okay.
