Here I am, less than two weeks from Hagg Lake, and my %*^&# back is messed up again. Haven't been able to run since Sunday. Went to the doc yesterday, and she says it's a muscle spasm, which is causing my sciatic nerve to go all wacko on me. The sciatic problem I can handle. The low back pain that switches between aching and feeling like an SOB, I cannot handle. For now, I'm hopped up on muscle relaxers and Alleve. Tomorrow I go see the MAT therapist who worked a miracle on my knee a couple of years ago. Keeping my fingers crossed. I didn't have any plans to go all out at Hagg Lake since it's a training run for AR50, but I sure as heck didn't want to go into it hurting or not being able to train for the two weeks prior.
{sigh . . .} I need ice cream . . .
