After 16 days off my feet, I found the motivation to get moving again on Monday and then I realized that I needed a few more days off from running. Painful hemorrhoids An uncomfortable situation popped up surfaced and prevented me from any further running.
Some big changes are happening in the DMT home which I’ll tell you more about in another post, but my butt body is finding bizarre ways to deal with the changes. Isn’t it ironic that when I’m feeling stressed and really want to run, my body fight backs in ways that prevent me from running?
This uncomfortable situation could also have been a result of skipping meals and not eating enough fiber combined with the stress caused by change. Regardless, it forced to remain seated for a few more miserable days.
After a few more days off my feet, the uncomfortable situation resolved itself and I felt ready to run again today.
3 miles
Pace 9:59

Not bad … but you have to keep it up. I’ve been running for about 30 years now and at age 55, it still feels great.
Good for you ! Gotta start somewhere.
Well, you inspired me. I’ll get on a running kick for months and then something like your situation will happen and it takes me months to get back on the pavement again. I’ll keep checking back with you everytime I want to skip my run. 🙂
Ring of Fire huh? No good. Glad you are feeling better.
I had a serious similar problem for the two weeks prior to my Marathon and it kept me from training. I didn’t have much “experience” with this, but after birthing three children, my wife directed the proper treatment.
hmm i think i’ll take my poo incidents over hemorrhoids! i hope you are able to resume a regular schedule, in both departments, soon.
