Funny that my 50 mile time is faster than my 50K.  Guess that's what happens when your only 50K has over 11,000' of vertical ascent =)

Personal:

I started running in April '09 and run to maintain some balance in my life.  Apparently I have an addictive personality so I figure I should do something positive with it.

I feel recovered from the race now and I was actually ready to run about 3 days after, but my left shin is still in pain, even when I walk.  It gets progressively better each day though, so I'm not seeing a doctor.  I'm sure a doc would just tell me I have a bone bruise and tendonitis in my anterior tibialis.  When I flex the muscle I can feel it creaking against the bone.  Kinda gross.  Looks like I'll be a stationary bike and elliptical junkie for the next couple weeks to keep my fitness up, which really sucks because this is my favorite time of year to be up in the mountains.

Tried the elliptical but it still puts too much pressure on the leg.  The stationary bike seemed to do the trick though.  Kept the resistance fairly low and just cruised with some tunes in my ear.  Not exactly my idea of a good time, but it's all I got right now.  30 minutes of something is better than nothing.
