Today is my fifteenth week of running against Barack Obama. I could only muster a mere three miles this week, but my leg is slowly feeling better each day. In lieu of running this week I was able to visit a doctor and I also had my running gait analyzed, gaining some valuable insight on my form and what type of shoes I should be running in. For any avid runner, it is surprising how many minute details revolve around the dynamic relationship of bones, muscles, ligaments and tendons in the leg when they are all pummeling asphalt day after day.

I highly recommend Tri-Running, here in Lafayette, to any runner seeking solutions for pain in their legs or to anyone looking for shoes or accessories that conform to your personal build and needs. I purchased a new pair of shoes, which I am pretty excited about, and plan on hitting the streets again soon. I have almost forty miles of running I need to catch up on from the past two weeks and every day I don’t run from this day forward increases my deficit.

Officially, I ran 3.0 miles this week, bringing my total amount of miles run to 250.7, averaging 2.39 miles per day over the last 105 days.

I’ll be seeing a sports therapist this week and hopefully he can bend and tweak whatever it is that needs attention in my leg, then back to the streets. My budget has suffered a troubling deficit but I will, one day at a time, work towards rebalancing it and then creating a surplus as we move closer to November 6, 2012, the presidential election that has stoked every ember in my heart and mind to get Barack Obama voted out of office.

1,829.3 miles to go.
