Guess who is hurt again? You got it, it's me. I'm so sick of dealing with these pains. Just when I feel like my fitness level is back up, I wake up and can't walk with out looking like Fred Samford (Lizabeth it's the big one.) Today the pain level in my hip reached a all time high, I would say a 9 out of 10. I would like to think because of my past i'm pretty familiar with pain - I mean I did have my achilles cut in half. I have never heard of anyone have as many hip problems or any hip problems anywhere close to my age - even Bo Jackson was in his 30's (i think.) So i've been told not to run or ride the bike for the next few days, and when I do run Saturday to go short and slow ... uh, I only have one speed and that is slow so I already have half of that j/k i've recently added another speed thats more of a "faster slow". If only all my runs felt like the first 3 miles of my Tuesday night run. I'm convinced I was under 9 minute miles and I felt pretty good until my knee quit on me. I actually felt like a runner, it was completely surreal .... then reality hit me with the punch line. I was back to struggling. My right knee needs to get it's shit together, I think it is truly the real thing holding me back.

So since I can't exercise right now, i'm going to spend my time playing the guitar, and facebook, and eating, and reading, and being super bored - I've been told i'm a Jack of all trades, master of none. I hope my legs loosen up soon and things get back to normal because honestly I can't handle sitting around doing nothing. I did get to hang out with one of my best friends seeing a B.O.B. concert (this guy is a pretty good performer). Hopefully tomorrow i'm ready to run "short" without it ending with me being Redd Fox again.
