@Janet: Congrats on your first two events. My friend is working there this year giving out the Goofy and Doopey medals and just notified us that the races are canceled tomorrow due to severe weather. I guess a first because of lightening strikes. Hopefully you will get to run Sunday.
@vhuber: I am sorry t hear about your news. I hope you go the insulin route. I would do it again in a heartbeat. Feel free to PM me any time for questions. I would be happy to be of support.
@anaconda469: Our furr babies and feathers friends are so special. Their absence is truly felt.
@ Dave: I am so truly sad to hear about your father. My heart goes out to both of and my prayers too. My dad turned 93 in Nov. and he has now been with me for the past two years. He is juggling stage four kidney disease with heart issues. It has been such a delicate balance of regulating both as his Lasix is destroying his kidneys and he can't be without it because of the edema. We just got him over a bout of gout for the first time. While he does not have cancer, he is frail and I too watch what was a strong man slowly diminish before my eyes. So please know I am right there with you in when it comes to his well being. Will add him to my prayer list. Keep us posted.
Jan 6: Adding 10 miles today of lots of walking and some running. Got new inserts for my shoes today and am praying they bring me some relief. Truly feeling lots of knee and heel pain.
TTD: 62.5 miles

@clepant - Yes, today's half marathon is cancelled! I'm sure this was a very difficult decision for the race directors and they have untold headaches to deal with. I also feel for many runners who traveled for the event, paid for hotels, and on and on. As for me, I got to sleep in. If you send me a PM with a photo or description of your friend, I'll look for her tomorrow, if she's working the late shift when the slower runners come through. I think there are only a couple of dozen volunteers giving out the goofy and dopey medals so I should be able to find her if she's there.

***The ticker and Google Chrome are not playing nice together. For some reason the ticker does not want to update, and Chrome is my main browser, It should read 125 miles. Maybe it will catch up***

Glad I have a treadmill, it's too hard for me to breathe outside this weekend. Kudos to you hardier types that keep going out in these single digit or lower temperatures, I can't do it this time.
Ok moving Friday, work kept me in front of the computer most of yesterday. Added a total of 4 miles for a January total of 14.75 miles.
@Dave I'm so sorry. There aren't words.

@Janet: Hope your race went well today. I tried messaging Joey (Jones) my running club friend to see if he would be there at medal distribution and never got a reply.
@ Dave: Keeping your dad in my prayers for some positive things tomorrow. I have been hearing some promising things for treating lung cancer.

I had something good happen to me this weekend. I have been experiencing increasing pain in my right foot. I pretty much hobble home at the end of the day because it hurts so much. My knees and hips were hurting as well. Even cycling was a struggle. I had my heel injected and was recommended some New Balance inserts from my doctor because of the cost of custom made ones. Well, I received this add for Protalus inserts and read all theses reviews from people who said they swear by them and how they have given them a new life. Well I bought two pair because they have a 90 day wear them money back guarantee. I put them on the first night I got them and no pain. I took the pups for a long walk and no pain. My knees and hips stopped hurting. I biked 10 miles on the bike and my time improved without pain. They are incredible. Not the stiff, lock your arch in place inserts. I have movement but realgnment. This the best birthday present I could have received. I am honestly thinking my running days are possible again, Just had to share my excitement.5 -
Thank you all so much for all of the kind words, thoughts, hugs and offers of prayers. It means a lot to me.
I've managed to get to the gym both days this weekend for some much needed endorphin bumps. It's helping.
I'm so grateful to have you all in my life. Bless you, each and every one of you. :flowerforyou:

Sat was 10 on ex bike & today was an hour of Popsugar fitness videos & 2.25 walking.
I did get a call from the vet yesterday & said she will not take him in for what all it takes to set up treatment. The closest clinic would be 75 miles one way. Yes he is diabetic & has issues with his pancreas along with other stuff. The little stinker has been like his old self for 3 days now. I've been feeding him beef or pork along with some potatoes & he is like his old self. Does drink & pee but not as bad as last week. With lots of crying & heartache we have decided when he gets really sick we will put him to rest. I cry just saying that...
