    We got a wintry mix yesterday and plunging temps, so even the treated roads are coated in ice this morning. So...treadmill it is.

    Still haven't been able to use that new Wahoo Tickr HRM. Synced it up this morning and started my workout only to have it pop up a firmware update notification during the whole workout. Didn't see that until the end. I guess it's at least updated now.

    2/3 - 4.1 mile (tempo run)
    2/5 - 4.02 miles (treadmill - icy roads)

    First run of the month - January was crazy, so I'm hoping to get back to a routine in February, plus start training for spring races.

    I am off to a slow start this month as I have been battling a nasty cold. I took 3 days off but managed to run 4 miles this morning with the 5 year old in the jog stroller (she woke up as I was leaving and wanted to keep me company).

    02/01 - 8 miles
    02/05 - 4 miles

    I hurt a muscle in my shin that is driving me crazy, I have tried muscle cream and taking drugs; it doesn't want to go away. What kind of stretches do y'all do to help the muscles around your shin? I tried calf stretches but those are working the muscles around the back - i need the ones around the front. Only ones I know are "toe lifts" I was wondering if there was something else I could do?

    Have you tried putting a towel on the floor and then scrunching your toes in it? I know that sounds weird but it's supposed to help!

    Thanks for the suggestion, I will have to try that when I get home. I got this link from a response on my wall that I'm posting here for others who may want ideas.

    @ddmom0811‌ thanks! I've been to the PT a couple of times and go again on Friday. He said he'll have me running pain free in no time, so he's now my new best friend. :smiley: I'm actually feeling better already. I hope you're feeling 100% soon.
