5.3 miles. 3.5 in my quad starting hurting again. Oh no! not again! - was all I could think.

Looks like I'll be banished to the elliptical for a bit to see if this problem can heal up. 2011 isn't my year for feeling good running.  

I was supposed to run the Salem days 5k today. But I listened to the inner voice screaming inside my heart not to race today. So glad I didn't.

Oh no no no! Hopefully it just turns into nothing!

DANG! But, you are smart. You will take care of it and be back to speedy and killing the rest of us in no time.

So so sorry about the quad. :( I have found that foam rolling is the only thing that helps my quads. I will keep my fingers crossed for you!

Thanks you guys. I'm just going to rest up for the next few days and see how it goes. I am not sure what is going on. It happened during my long run Thursday morning.

I need to think positive....
