300 & Terrible Back

Hooray!! Another milestone for this year, I have reached the 300 mile mark for this year!! Everyone deserves a pat on the back so I am giving me mine!!! Hooray for me!!!

Now if this crazy/awful/terrible back pain of mine would GO AWAY, maybe I can make it another 300 + this year! Not exactly sure what is wrong with my back (besides HURTING) all I did was bend over to pick up a towel and didn't think I was going to get back up :( I attempted to run last night and to my disappointment was only able to take about 5 strides before I gave up and walked. Walking still HURT but I continued on hoping it would stretch it out some. This morning, still in pain but maybe not as bad. I am taking Bayer Back & Body pills, using an ice pack (for 20 mins at a time) and using my prize that I won from Erica H @ I Run Beacause ....I Can(you really should check out her blog!!) a Pressure Point hand massager! It has most definitely come in handy the last couple of days!! I have heard all kinds of suggestions and been doing them all, SO if you have any PLEASE share!!

Great milestone, too bad the bad back is detracting from the celebration.
