I'm back, baby! (no pun intended)

Woke up with less of a back pain today, so left 15 mins early and ran a slow 1.2 mile test loop with Karma. He was happy to be out there, and my back was feeling pretty good. A little stiff at first, but not anything that would keep me in bed. I'm definitely back from my back soreness, which doesn't count as an injury. I tweaked my back napping on the couch. How is that an injury?

We ended up running a 10.35 mile variant of "the Turista". Today there were 7 of us, and everyone ran well, but probably not as well as Geezer.

Glad to report that I have a new blood blister on my right foot, but my left foot looks as pretty as a model's foot.

On another note, I decided to swing by Academy (sport and outdoors) yesterday, to look at Swiss Balls. You know those giant beach ball looking things that people do workouts on, but also sit on during the work day. Apparently if I sit on this thing, my core muscles will get a little more of a workout than if I just sit on my usual comfy, leather office chair. I bought one as they're less than $20. The one I got is a little different than the ones I've seen at Rogue, as it has about 1kg (2 lbs) of sand in it, so it's doesn't roll around, and instead stays put.
Yesterday, I sat on it for 30 minutes or so, but my back hurt too much. Today, I've sat on it since 8:20am, and i'm feeling fine. During a boring as all hell really exciting update call, I decided to also do some Rocky Balboa style ab work from it while sitting here listening to the new way we're going to add data into our SFA tool.
Sisson was right that you definitely sit much more upright on it, and therefore are more engaged in your work. However, I don't have much of a butt, so 4 hours later, my left butt cheek is numb and sore. I think i'm going to have to ease into a full work day of Swiss Ball sitting action, but I do like it.

Time for lunch. Should I use Pumpernickel or Whole grain?
