| Felt pretty good tonight. Foot feeling pretty good, and I actually felt pretty fluid. I will stay treadmill bound for a little while until I have confidence in my ability to run pain free outdoors. |

| Ok, back at it today. Another solid 5 miles on the treadmill. Felt pretty good today, foot not too tender and legs moved comfortably today. I will gradually add some mileage in the upcoming weeks, but for now this feels pretty good. I don't even mind running on the mill right now!!! |

Although not complete yet, my personal and business blog sight is now active. I am not sure how diligent I will be in updating it, but it should contain more personal insights not only into the world of fitness (my profession), but into my philosophies on life in general. Anywho..... http://sbrowningpt.blogspot.com/
I will post my run shortly - haven't quite made it out the door yet. I have to say, Adam ran by the house this morning in the middle of the storm, the guilt is now overwhelming - thanks Adam, now I really don't have an excuse not to run!!! 5 miles on the treadmill, a very nice run, just relaxed and enjoyed some great tunes and dreamt of far away places. There are so many more places to see, I just want to visit them all!!

| Another solid 5 on the treadmill today. I was a little sluggish getting started but eased into a pretty good run. Gradually progression again, felt good, will need to ice down to make sure the swelling stays under control. |

| Well another solid 5 on the treadmill. Man was I tempted to go outside, soon enough. Pace was a little more brisk today, with a couple 6:30 miles - I know flying, but it is a start. |

| Made an attempt at 10x1 min reps today to see if the foot would tolerate anything faster. It was ok during the set, but man it was completely unhappy after, wow!! Anyway, it is worth expermenting at this point. I will ice it down throughout the day and get it back under control. The reps felt fast and I felt very a lot out of synch, but that will come. |

| Alright, I made the executive decision not to run this evening. The foot feels pretty good this evening, not so much earlier. I am encouraged that it has gotten better throughout the day and look forward to running again tomorrow. |

| Well, I attempted to run three faster miles today on the treadmill. and to some blog had some success. I warm-up 2 and then ran a 5:56, and then was about comput. I ran the next around 6:20, short recovery and then the last in 5:52. I am in pathetic shape right now, I guess 20 miles a week (on a good week) is not going to do it. I can dream.... |

| First time outside in a month. The foot was not very happy from yesterday, but certainly tolerable. I can tell you, the ground is certainly less forgiving than the treadmill. I might actually be a little sore tomorrow!! Funny!! Anyway, I may get out again tomorrow if the weather is nice, I might even shoot for 6 - pathetic!!!! |

| Alright, I have decided to take at least the next couple weeks off from running. The foot is not good and I want to clear this problem up for good. I have battled it for almost 6 years and I want to be done with it. I will continue to cross train heavily and maintain some level of fitness, and I will engage in aggressive rehab. Today I spent 2 hours cross country skiing with Michelle at Snow Basin, it was amazing. Beautiful sun, and the snow was fantastic. This is the first time out this year on the cc skis and I really had a blast. |

| 1400 yards in the pool, I have not swum that much for a while, but I feel it is an ok start. I will also try to ride tonight for at least a half hour and build from there. |

| 2000 yards in the pool. I swam harder today than yesterday, not saying much, but it was some work. My arms are not quite conditioned yet, but that should change in a couple weeks. The foot feels good today, the rest is helping, I am working hard to fix this problem. |

| Another 1400 in the pool, not that impressive, but literally all I had time for. My arms are pretty fatigued from the last few days, but they will condition soon and I will add some more yardage. The pool was super chlorinated today, yuck! |

| 1700 yards in the pool today. I warmed up 400 yards with flippers on, what a blast, man can you fly with those on!! I actually tried an 800 for time today, inspired by another FRB tri guy. I do not know the last time I swam anything for time, but I figured it would interesting. I thought if I could swim sub 1:30 per 100 I would be happy. I averaged just under 1:30 with an 11:40 something 800. I did not think that was too bad considering I have only been in the water 4 days. It was a pretty far cry from many moons ago, but surprisingly better than I thought it would be. The effort level was not hard, certainly not all out, if I tried an all out effort I would not have made 800 yards. Anyway, an ok swim, and the foot felt ok, still not pain free, but better. |

| Another 2000 yards in the pool, actually felt pretty good. I am breaking into sets, but not really any too specific yet. Really I am just trying to establish some sort of base so I can actually do enough to maintain, or guess at this point, gain fitness. |

Another day at the pool. Swam a continuous 1000 for the first time in forever. I actually felt very comfortable, tried not to push to hard. After a full week of swimming, I actually feel pretty good, I will up the yardage next week. I miss running, but I miss running pain free even more. I am continuing with the rehab sets, and Michelle is giving me daily deep tissue massage. I think things are improving, I will wait another week and see how I feel. 1500 yards total.

| After a horrendous nights sleep due to a wrong number called, I managed to make it to the pool. Swam 2600 yards today broken into sets of 5x400, with a couple easy kick sets and a 200 IM. My arms were pretty cooked at the end, my lats are pretty beat up too. I did not feel as strong today, but that could just be 7 days in a row of a new sport. |

| Thank you to Sasha for restoring my accidentally deleted blog entries. Another exciting day in the pool, but only managed 1000 yards before the high school team showed up and kicked us out. Oh well, maybe a bit of time on the bike later today. |

| 1500 yards in the pool. Actually did a set of 10x50, essentially the equalivant of doing 200's on the track. I was good for the first 7, then the lactic acid started to build and my arms were fried. I did the set on the minute, coming in on the 31-33. I did some other drills too, I probably should have done more but.... |

| Alright, 2000 yards in the pool this evening. A better workout tonight, primary set was a 5x200 on the the 3 minute. I was coming in on the 2:40, 2:45 range. These felt ok, although a little slower than I would have liked. Did a bunch of butterfly too, I wonder if my arms were even coming out of the water!!!! |

| 2600 yards in the pool today. Did some sprint sets to try and increase my effeciency, I felt pretty strong, but it wears me out. Did some kick sprint sets too, man were my legs on fire. All in all a good day in the pool. |

| 30 minutes on the bike trainer today, it was a change, and a day off from swimming will probably do some good, not that I have really done too much. It felt good to ride, but I think it almost worse than the treadmill. |

| A little tough getting going today. 1500 in the pool, once I was in I felt good. The foot is getting better and there is only a little inflammation left. I hope only a week maybe 2 left before I can start with some easy running. |

| 2500 yards in the pool today, did 5 x 200 for a main set, did these on the 3:00, coming to the wall about 2:40. I also did a hard kick set with fins, torched my ankles, but in a demented way it actually felt pretty good. Finished with a 50 for time, the first I have done in many moons. I watched an older gentleman do one so I was inspired. Swimming the 50 is a lot like running a 200, go until you die, it is fun though. I came in around 25 seconds, which is a far cry from my best, but it was not a meet, and I have only been swimming 2 weeks. Who knows maybe in another 2 weeks I can drop to 24 seconds!! It was fun none-the-less. |

| The wind kept me most of the night, so I was a little groggy getting up. Did an early morning swim, it actually felt pretty good other than the bubble about blowing off the pool. Did a pyramid set 400,300,200,100,50,100,200,300,400. The goal was to keep the pace around 1:20 per 100, and I managed to do that. I am anxious to get back on the run, but I still think it is going to be several more weeks. 3000 yards total. |

| Close to 3000 yards again in the pool. I did some faster sets this evening, 50's on about the 30-32. Felt good, I am getting stronger and stronger in the water and it is getting much easier. |

| Well I thought I would start my morning with some abdominal exercises so I threw-up! A great start to the day. Spent the rest of the day sick with some stomach disorder and a migraine to top it off - overall a great day. |

| Ok, 2000 yards in the pool with a whole mixture of things. I did 3x200 IM and that was kind of fun. Nice to know I can do 50 fly without drowning. Anyway, feeling much better and glad to be back at it. |
