TODAY WAS THE BEST RUN OF 2009!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have to back track to yesterday, I ran out of Naproxin, my prescription Ibprofen, so I went to Target to get it filled and they couldn't do it until they talked to my doctor, so I was bummed, because I have been feeling so horrible these last few months. Last night I took 3 200mg of Motrin, and then took 3 this morning and then met Gary and took off to Millcreek. We parked his car at Einsteins and mine at the top of the road where they close it for winter and ran up to Elbow Fork and then hopped on the Pipeline and ran all the way to the end and then turned around and ran down Rattlesnake Gulch. By the time we hit the road we were at about 11 miles. I had absolutely NO PAIN and felt like a million bucks the entire time. After about 10 miles I wanted to cry I was so happy. I felt like a kid, tons of energy and loving every minute of it. So, at mile 11 we hit the road and ran on the side of the road for almost 2 miles to Einsteins, we were doing about a 10:?? minute mile pace. So we get to the car and realized Gary's keys were in my car at the top of the canyon so, Gary, being half superman runs back up the canyon 5 miles to get the car and I speed walk up to Church Fork and hike up to get my jacket I left hidden. Our timing was perfect, Gary pulled up just as I got back to the road. I am sure that the Naproxin is the culprit here, I am so glad the prescription wasn't filled. The moral of this story is doctors don't always know what is best!! I am buying stock in Motrin. Another plus for my great run was, #1 a FABULOUS TRAIl, #2 Amazing weather #3 Great Company. I feel like have been given a new lease on life!!!!!!!! Watch out Ogden, here I come!!!!!!!! Thanks everyone for all your helpful comments, I am going to figure out a way to adjust my training and get better, but I think I figured out the number one problem today!!!!
