| Morning run...heels still hurt. Tried not to heel strike. Heels felt ok until the end when they hurt. Didn't hurt too bad during the day until the end of the day. Will have to call podiatrist to find out what to do to improve the pain until my appointment.

| Just didn't have time to run today - got to work early and didn't get done til late, then transported my miniature horse to a friend's pasture to be a companion to her older horse whose pasture companion recently passed away. Stayed late with horses and owner to make sure everyone got along ok.
Probably worked out well since my right heel still hurts. Will see how it goes over the weekend with my longer run on Sunday. Podiatrist appointment still a little more than a week away.
Guess I could do the long run on Saturday and recovery run on Sunday.

| 6.8 miles mid-morning. Before the run, I went to Walgreens and bought some $25 Dr. Scholls gel inserts and put them on top of my orthotics to see if that would help. Ran pretty comfortably, but my heels hurt, probably residual pain from earlier run this week. Will see how they feel tomorrow.

| Morning 9.2 mile run in 1:22. No heel pain with the Dr. Scholls inserts added to my orthotics. Will see how they feel tomorrow. Hopeful that it is just needing new orthotics and that the old orthotics + Dr. Scholls will last until I get new ones. Might be time for new running shoes too.

| Travel day - up early getting ready, dropping dogs off at kennel, and it took all day to get to Mom's. Then visited with her and went to her house to make sure all is ok.

| 3 Miles in Upstate NY at dusk. Taking care of Mom and a few things at her house. Busy day doing things for her, so not much time to run. Will run further tomorrow morning.

| No time to run at all! Bees had invaded my Mom's house, and I had to find a hotel to spend the night. Busy day all day doing necessary errands and things for Mom and spending time with her.

| Met the exterminator early at the house, and it took several hours to get the bees under control, then had to take Mom to they eye doctor, get her back to assisted living, have dinner, and find another hotel for the night. Leaving early tomorrow - 6 am flight.

| Travel day - up at 3:45 am and just got to the airport on time. Got home around 1:00 and had to catch up on lots of house responsibilities and exercise 2 horses. All these adult responbililities really cut into running time. Hope for a long run tomorrow.

| 10 miles in 1:29, then 0.5 walking cool down. Nice morning, felt good, building endurance. Need new shoes and orthotics. Got blisters because the makeshift orthotics cause feet to rub on shoes in odd places.

| Continuing the training plan...there was no opportunity to run last week at the conference. Did not feel comfortable running where I was staying in Houston and had responsibilities at the conference so had to be there early and stay late. Hoping for a better week of running this week.

| A better start to the week. 11 miles at 4:30 pm in the rain in 1:44. Fortunately not a cold rain. The good thing is, I'n almost to 13 miles, and I still have time to work on speed before the first weekend in December.

Tired after the busy work week and another early meeting. Rode my horse Ellie which is quite a workout for my legs since she is reluctant and needs a lot of pushing and correction. Didn't have time to run. : (
