Diagnosed with Ankylosing Spondylitis in June of 2008. Need to learn how to manage the disease and the treatments, and figure out what sort of training I can do with it.

I would like to spend the winter building a really strong base, and potentially try another marathon in 2009. Next big race will be the Indy Mini Marathon in May, 2009.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Run another marathon...well.

Endure and persist; this pain will turn to your good. - Ovid

Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us. - Romans 5:1-5

AM - lifted weights at gym. Weighed in at 130 lbs.

PM - Easy run; did big loop around Logan and rocked out to Mutual Admiration Society. 6:41/mile pace.

Red burn day in Logan today. The air is pure soup. I was feeling sick to my stomach during the run because of it. I'll try to get up either Blacksmith or Logan Canyon tomorrow for my long run.
