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 - ran the dog around the block. Afternoon - ran from work and did the Landfill Loop via Planet Walk. Averaged right under 7:00/mile. It is an amazing gorgeous day; sunny 50 degrees. I'll take it for December 1!

Ran the dog for a mile, then ran to the chiropractor. My x-ray results were in. On 5-20-08 my neck angle was 18 degrees. On 9-11-08 my neck angle had only improved to to 22 degrees. Then on 11-20-08 my neck angle improved to 33 degrees. At this point, it's considered to be in the range of "normal", but I'm going to continue the program for another month or so and see if I can get it up to the upper-30s. The curve of the upper part of my neck looks really good, but the lower part does not. So we devised a strategy to help that, what I'm not sure what will happen. In any case, looking at the progression of x-rays, it's night and day, so that was nice to see. Ran back to work from the chiro. 7:15 pace overall.

AM - ran the dog around the block noon - mini workout. Ran home from work to get my garmin (I forgot it), then ran out to the First Dam Run 10K course and ran it at brisk pace. But on the second half, "brisk" got faster and faster, so I'll go ahead and count this as MP. Felt great. Splits were 6:14, 6:06, 6:06, 5:47, 5:36, 5:26.

Ran from my house to the River Trail, where I met Jon. Fought a little bit of a canyon wind, but not too bad (but very cold). Then we ran to Guineva Malibu and back. There was some snow on the trail, but it was soft and not icy. Averaged 8:08/mile for the entire run.
