Felt smooth in the water today for 2.3 miles.

Ortho doc was all smiles. Xray last week about had me picking out tombstones, but MRI showed multiple bone synovial cysts and bad bursitis. No Big Deal. He said I need to stretch, stretch, stretch. He said I'm tightly wound. I kinda tuned him out after he said I wasn't dying AND I can run. Really, this is answered prayers. Full steam ahead.

Enjoy the beautiful day. And thanks, friends. :)

Guess the tendons running from my calf around the heel in to the foot are "aggravated" or something. Have some good stretches to do. Question: "Can I run?" Answer: "Sure if it doesn't hurt." Result - I can't run. Still imping pretty noticeably (right G?) and running throws off my stride so the other leg/hip hurts. Need more Windex for sure.

Let me run an idea by ya'll: I was thinking about seeing if I could get the Brewsky's (84th & Park Drive) party room for a post Heartland party September 6th. But then got thinking that it is Labor Day weekend. So I thought perhaps we could do a post Omaha party on September 20 at Brewsky's...thinking more folks would be available. Doesn't matter if you are running either, both, or neither...just want to maximize the number of folks for the gathering. Brewsky's has a nice party room and great food. And, it's something different for us non-west Omaha folks ;) Let me know and I'll get on the horn.

I took a look at the Heartland website yesterday...lo and behold the course has changed to the "Keystone" marathon/half/10K. Seems the police denied the original planned course. Looking forward to racing the Heartland Half and seeing where my fitness is for the Toronto Marathon.

Song of the day: "Don't Dream, It's Over" by Crowded House.

  • Squints Squints City support for running events is depressing. It's a classic Catch 22; a race needs to be big for the city to tolerate it, but a race can't get big if the city doesn't provide some level of support. Heck, they wouldn't even let the Corporate Cup have a decent route and that was huge.
    • posted at 01:18:00 EDT
  • Dan Dan Regarding the route: sounds like they had limited options. The rejected course they had hoped for was nice, but very hilly. Not sure how the regular Sunday runners and bikers on the Keystone will react to a race going on.

    • posted at 02:32:00 EDT
  • dordio dordio Would've love to see the old school corporate cup route stick around, even the old one out by airport would've been cool. I'd imagine they'll have to limit numbers due space constraints? Curious, is the start finish by PEAK?
    • posted at 04:13:00 EDT
  • Dan Dan ^No, start/finish is 70th and Spring. It goes by the new Baxter Arena before going onto the Keystone. I think they picked that start because it is directly north of host hotel Ramada Plaza 72nd and Grover. Maps on heartlandmarathon.org .
