Total time of 1:10:28 for 9 miles, with an average HR of 133. So, 1:20 faster than yesterday, with an average HR that was 1 bpm slower. That makes me think that I was still slightly fatigued yesterday after the max stress test on Wednesday.
My leg and back have still caused intermittent pain recently, though I have not made daily mention of it as I did previously. The pain tends to radiate through the iliac crest and down into the quad/groin, or up into the low back. I really should go to see a physical therapist soon so that I can try to get rid of the pain completely. My hesitation however, has been that I have been mostly successful at eliminating the pain without the need to see a doctor. I keep thinking that maybe I will figure out something new to fix things on my own, and the possibility excites me considering how close I actually am to doing just that.
Anyhow, I figure that my kids need a little more love today, so here are a few pictures.
Shayon holding Kamran. He doesn't like doing this very often (although he loves giving the baby kisses), so we had to persuade him to hold the baby so that we could take a picture.
Anita and Shayon pretending to be Darth Vader at the Halloweed store.
Shayon decided to be an artist today. Here he is painting his face with the face paint that was supposed to be part of his halloweed costume (a skeleton).
