Due to many uncontrollable factors, my beautiful WARM mid-day run was RUINED and I had to run on the TM during the encore showing of Julie & Julia tonight. I stretched, rolled and did Michelle's ab's, showered and am now going to bed.
I don't think there is enough lotion in the world to help my poor dry skin :(::::::::: |

| | I was going to run outside but as I waited for the temperatures to rise into the balmy mid 20's, the snow came and covered the roads :( I did the treadmill while we watched the Village. It's a little scary to run in the dark during a thriller :D |

What a GLORIOUS run! I warmed up on the treadmill walking, then stretched and then headed out. It was SO nice out. I was really naughty and ran 4 miles. My knee was fine until the end o mile 3. It got really mad at me, so I stopped and stretched my hips really well. The knee behaved for the next half mile with a little squawking at 3.5 miles. I stretched again and ran home and stretched some more. Happy New Year!!! *** Adventures in sledding with Michelle & Luz Some say
that sledding is fun. Some say that sledding is dangerous and only for
the fools of the world. I say that I am an idiot and sledding is
fun... if you don't get hurt! I took my first run, in probably 20
years, down a road that is closed in the winter due to its steep
slope. The locals of Woodland Hills use it for sledding, I'd say
ultimate sledding. I was on Ben's little blue saucer. Well, I immediately
ended up sledding backwards. About half way down the hill, on one side,
there is a HUGE jump. I hit the jump pretty square on, getting some
serious air landing pretty flat with a little accent on my left sits
bone... OUCH! The teenagers just below the jump looked at me in awe,
probably wondering if I was going to burst into tears. I just gave
them a thumbs up, they cheered and I went the rest of the way down. At
the bottom, there is a little snow ridge, made for stopping, that I
just plowed through onto the road below, STILL BACKWARDS! Even though
I was on the asphalt, I was still moving FAST. The only thing I could
think of to do to stop, was to just flatten myself out. This
eventually stopped me, but my coat is pretty trashed. I am very glad I
had on a fur lined suede coat, or I'd have some good road rash. Oh the
joys of a family outing :) I am feeling OK right now, except it really
hurts to sit, or stand, or bend. I can't wait to see what tomorrow
brings :) Life is good! Oh, and I did do more sledding runs. My
husband watched my whole first run and was pretty sure I was finished
for the day after the jump, but no not me! I need to learn how to ski! |

| | 1/2 mile warm up, stretch. 3+ miles on the treadmill. Stretch, roll, abs, stretch. No knee pain at all. I am going to do at least three miles a day next week, so long as there is no pain.
My bum is still sore today, but not worse than last night. I can't sit on a hard surface well, but the sofa is okee dokee. I must purge my house of all of the holiday crap. Tomorrow is going to be far better than today, after all it has no mistakes in it yet ;D I am very pooped out. I don't do well with company at my house. I really would like to have another day after tomorrow with nobody coming over. I love my family and I love to have them over, but I can feel that I really need a day to just lounge around and now worry about anybody. I've had migraines straight since Wednesday :(
