Summary:
jogged around on the trails a bit. No pain again. It's definitely getting better, and is definitely still around. I can really feel it if I attempt to do a quad stretch. It seems that the problem is with the tendons being out of whack. you can hear them shifting around when i move my hip/leg around on the leg that's hurt, but not on the other leg.

went faster today to test out the knee and see where it was at. It was strained going at a faster pace. I think I'm going to cut out the exercises tomorrow to maybe give my quad a day of rest. I think i'm going to try heat, see what that does.

bought a knee brace today and tried it out today. It's unfreakingbelievable. No pain and I can go as fast as I want. After I took it off, the knee felt better as well. This is huge.

Summary:
Ran with the knee brace again. No pain again. This is very exciting. I think Barton was right, as scary as that is, and that it was a strained muscle on the outside of my quad. Also, I'm going to shut down the donations for pennypermile.com due to my internet business taking off.

Summary:
8:57 for 1st. Pretty horrible race. Went out in 33, 67, 2:19, 3:30, 8:57. I started dry heaving/vomiting during the second half of the race again. I don't know what the hell is going on, but I have to figure it out. This happened to me once senior year, and this year it's happened 3 or 4 times. I'm cutting myself off the iron and multivitamin pills and seeing if that helps. If anybody has any ideas as to anything that could help leave me a comment. It happens when I start to push the pace, I'll start to dry heave and my stomach starts spasming and I'm forced to back off, then I'll try again and it happens again. So frustrating. Every time it happens I end up having a very slow time. I'm thinking the iron pills could POSSIBLY have something to do with it cuz they screw with your digestive system, I don't know. I'm frustrated.

ran with tree. Going at a pretty good clip. There was some guy on during our third trail who we caught up to, he looked behind at us, made a noise, and started to pull away. We were probably going like 6:15 pace at the time. So I was like, alright well that was weird. So he pulls away, then he comes back a little, then pulls away, and comes back, at which point I decide that I've had enough and drop it down to pass him, at which point scott starts complaining about the pace of the run. A good run overall. I think something faster like this is good to get the juices flowing. I was also glad to hear about power's prolotherapy today or whatever it's called. I'm excited to see if it does anything.

scott and i did the hill loop in 58:04. That's the fastest hill loop I've ever done, and a minute faster than my fastest hill loop in cross this year. Although, I felt pretty horrible on the hills, and my stomach was being a little weird. I think I'm going to try to drink gatorade a couple hours before my next hard effort to see if that makes things better. I need to find a cure for my stomach problems before my next race. If the gatorade doesn't work, I might look into acid reflex pills. Oh, and I've noticed that my pennypermile page has gone from 10 pageviews a day to 600 pageviews a day due to the e-newsletter. Read up fords, read up.

ran with scott. first 7 miles relaxed, 2nd 7 fast. About 5:55 pace. Felt medium. any sort of incline I don't do well on. It will come with time though. I was seeing if there was any stomach weirdness, I don't think so. I think I might have felt something, but I might have just been making it up. I think it happens when I go anaerobic. It also might be related to some sort of asthma thing too. I have a tendancy to wheeze sometimes. Saw a doctor in high school, but I'm pretty sure he had no idea about it. Maybe I should go again. I'll see how I feel during the next few harder efforts and go from there.

ran with bielecki and bob at the conference meet. Ran around the xc course, then to some state penatentary, then back to the course. Bob dropped off because he said he wasn't in good enough shape, which is probably true. Hairbs and I recounted our victory over mulehnberg at ursinus as we ran the course. A good run.

started off with bernie, scott, and jb. felt good so decided to go a little faster. JB blew by me in the harriton woods, then we ran together until the saunders hill where he obilerated me, I caught up at a light, and then he pulled away again at the last hill loop hill. Felt very good today. I'm getting some strength back again.
