Total Distance
1.34

I ran 1.34 around the neighborhood. During my run a lady rode up behind me on her bike, calling me by name. It's a lady I always see out riding her bike while I'm running. She asked if I was in pain because it looked like I was limping. She said she noticed today and last time she saw me running that I was running differently and apparently she's concerned enough to talk to me about. She basically advised that I stop running so I don't end up like her, on a bike for the rest of my life. She said I'm young and I need to be careful and ...I appreciate her concern but I just want to scream! I was telling her (she rode beside me as I ran this 1.34) I rested and that it wasn't hurting as bad as it used to. I stopped running cause I guess she was going to keep riding beside me till I stopped. Then I saw Lysa ran past up ahead but she didn't see me. I wasn't sure if it was her either cause she cut her hair. ANYWAY, I stopped running.  As we watched Lysa run by the lady said "She's not running funny." Like me. Okay...so...should I stop running? Should I listen to her? I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!!! This probably doesn't make any sense. I don't care. I'm just mad. I'm MAD! I feel like I've lost what I had and can't get it back. I'm fat again and I can't run anymore. I guess this is my goodbye.

no, no, no, stacie! no goodbyes! i'm sorry you are frustrated and i hope you start feeling better soon. there are always going to be good and bad cycles in running. i know the bad parts aren't fun (in fact, they are terrible), but don't give up hope because things will turn around and you will feel good again. you WILL get it back. just hang in there.

i want to see lysa's haircut now...

Allie. You're awesome. I was planning on running 5 miles but that just kind of ruined it for me. you know, that thing where someone points out the truth and you realize that you're in denial about something and you need to face the truth even though you don't want to hear it. Here I go again...blah...blah...blah...You're so nice to care about me. It means a lot.

STACIE! It's okay. You will be back. I have no doubt about that. And like when you came back after having Josie, you will come back with a vengeance I'm sure. You are one of the most motivated people I know. Hang in there and become one with the yoga for awhile. It's smart you take it easy and get all the way better.

p.s. I'm having hair cutters remorse bc I can't put it in a ponytail.
