Well, I can chalk up today's run as absolutely pitiful! I began with a one mile warm-up walk and felt really good. It was even at a pretty decent clip. Then I began to run......well, I tried! As a matter of fact, I practically did NOT run today. I'm not sure if I had a bad case of indigestion or what; but my chest was hurting. I HATE what's happening! I'm not sure I even ran .15 mile before I had to stop and walk. My chest began to hurt with pains, like indigestion. My right hip had been aching some before I started and, of course, it wanted attention, too; therefore adding to the drama. I tried to push through by walking some, then I'd feel better and would tried to run again. But, NOOOO, that didn't work. I absolutely refused to quit before my hour was up! This went on the entire time: walking and running, walking and running. At least, I got in a decent walk.
After I got home and ate lunch, I laid down on the couch and slept for a while. When I woke up, the pain was still there. I'm now wondering if I'm getting an intestinal bug of sort! Yuk!!! I don't feel good and not handling this well at all. I really want to run again...NOW!!

I am SO sorry you had a bad run, but sometimes you HAVE to listen to your body! If you keep feeling bad, please go to the doctor! Runners can be incredibly in tune with their bodies...and still ignore them. Don't ignore!!!
