Personal:

I'm married with four children.  I run with a group called the Bingham Butt-Kickers, a really fun group of people that gets me out running early on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and sometimes Saturdays.   I recently found out that I've been running with poor form for many years, which has probably contributed to some nagging aches and pains I've had for years.  One of my big goals now is to be able to run with better form and to have running feel more effortless.  I hope this won't take too many years to achieve!

We met at Bingham with the plan to do a track workout.  After a warm-up, we looked around and just about everyone had left the track.  Most of them had run Boston and were still a little sore, so I understand not wanting to do track.  I really didn't want to do the track either, mainly because I've been feeling sluggish running lately and just prefer to run fairly slow and easy.  More on that below.  Anyway, a few of us stayed.  Some, I think Walter and  Rachel, actually did the planned workout.  Lisa and Lynette did a lot of it, they just had to leave early.  Peggy did a little, but she had to leave early also.  I ended up just running some 400's.  My best time was 1:41, the others were 1:45 and a few 1:48's.

The reason I didn't feel very well today and was unable to do the workout is because my thyroid is still high--in fact, higher than it's been in quite a while.  Supposedly my thyroid has been killed or is in the process of dying, so why am I still high??  And not only high, but higher than it was before I did radioactive iodine?  I'm seeing the doc tomorrow, so hopefully he'll explain what's going on.  This is getting old!!

I am sorry to hear the thyroid is still acting up, that is very bizarre. I hope you got some answers at the doctor and are felling well again soon.
