Nice slow pre-conference run with the Mo-Tab.  Actually just three songs, "The Lord Bless You and Keep you," "Consider the Lilies," and "This is the Christ."  Just add in "Come Thou Fount" and I'd have all of my FAVORITE songs ever!  Yes, there is a Molly hiding deep within.  She wouldn't be so bad, but she has HORRIBLE taste in clothes!

I'm not sure how to post this, but I got hit by a car today.  I should be fine.  The injuries seem to be superficial, but I am going in to the doc in a bit here for a thorough exam and x-rays.  I feel like crap!  Hopefully I'm just bumped and bruised :)

back to work.  I walked 1 mile, ran a slow mile and then walked another mile.  Everything felt fine.  Here's hoping it will keep feeling OK ;)

I am feeling back to normal.  I am freaked out to drive the car and walk outside.  And besides the nightmares, everything is A-ok.

I headed out of doors for my first time since the accident on the 6th.  I walked Will to pre-school, then headed up to Main Street.  At the mile mark I ran.  The walking seems to be be a bit bothersome to my quads.  The right was bugging last night on the treadmill and today the left was whining.  The running felt fine.  I walked until the 1/2 mile mark from my house and had to run home because the walking was making my feet fall asleep.  I was only planning 1 mile of running but it turned into 1.5.  My sweet neighbor Richard, gave me 2 apples from his apple stand on my way home.  Yummy treat!

I am planning probably 2 more trips to the chiropractor, as my back is still a bit off.  The muscle relaxants and the deep tissue massage(gift from KimR) have really made a HUGE difference!

After my run tuesday my whole pelvic area was not happy.  I am not sure exactly what was hurting.  I took a muscle relaxant and went to bed.  Wednesday morning I felt better so I went ahead with the walk/run plan.  Just a little twinge here and there.  Michelle came over to do it with me.  She even pushed the jogger stroller with Will in it.  There was no pelvic discomfort so I was not too worried.  The bottom of my feet hurt when I walked.  Running was more comfortable.  Very shortly after I got home my pelvic region was on fire.  Again, I can't say what exactly was hurting.  My SI joint, my hip flexors.  Just a mess.  I have appointment with Brady today (thursday, I am posting late).  Hopefully it is nothing that a few adjustments and a-stem can't fix.

On a lighter note, Michelle and I had a GREAT time!  My friend Richard, gave us our apple and we ate them while we walked.  Mac passed us in her car while we were walking up a hill, each with one hand on the stroller so we could eat our apples.   It had to look pretty funny.

Goose Egg for today.  I just got back from the doc.  He is quite confident that there are no breaks at all.  The pain is from going back to quickly.  There were/are sprains and injuries in my hips, back and legs that are not healed all the way and when I ran on them, even walking, just inflamed them all and threw them into a dither.  He's going to work me over for a few weeks to get back into shape and then I can run in two weeks.  I can bike, swim, or elliptical.  I'm gonna do some yoga right now and then ellipt at Michelle's.  She doesn't know that yet, but she will and I'm guessing she'll be THRILLED!!!!

60 min on the elliptical at Michelle's.  No problems at all.  I am thinking that I need to get an elliptical.  It would be a very practical piece of equipment to have.
