week of June 30

Monday 6.30
stayed home from work. pretty much slept all day.

Tuesday 7.1
tried to go to work this morning. could only make it a half day. went to the doctor later that day.

Wednesday 7.2
found out i have a really bad bladder infection. after one dose of antibiotic i am already feeling better. ran an easy 3 miles.

Thursday 7.3
on the road to recovery. ran an easy 4 miles

Friday 7.4
helped out with the store's first ever one mile road race. it was a huge success. then i tried to get in a quick run before helping to tear down the finish line area. i got in 4 miles.
at some point during the day i aggravated my left hamstring. it hurts pretty bad.

Saturday 7.5
tried to go for a run and got 2 minutes down the sidewalk and my hamstring hurt so bad i had to stop. i tried to walk a little but it still felt terrible. i went back home and did some abs and arm stuff. ben tried to massage it out a little when he got back. i think it helped some, but there is definitely something wrong.
later we drove to peoria for sarah and mike's wedding. it was a good time.

Sunday 7.6
again, i tried to run, this time in peoria. it was still a no go. i took about an hour long walk (because ben was still out running). i did a little stretching. i'm starting to feel concerned. also, for some reason, i really feel like i need some new shoes. these brooks just don't seem to be doing the trick for me.

weekly total:11 miles
shoes: brooks defyance (250)
