last 3 weeks: 148.6, 149.6 and 148 today...

Pissed blood for first time in 6 to 8 weeks....I was used to my 7 mile or longer runs peeing some blood...but then it cleared up...today was as bright red as I've seen it...

I did have a 6 month psp checkup...my score had dropped instead of going up...so it was slightly below where it begins to be high...if that makes sense...and it was down also...

What the hell is the cause of that bleeding though??
Your kidneys shouldn't be taking a beating at 7 miles.

I just went to doctor a month ago and he knows about this...my first bad episode was when I drank a lot of cherry Dr. Pepper...I drank some again this week for about 3 days...I don't know if it's a coincidence or not. I feel fine...I mean I'm tired and a little wiped out but even when I was in top shape a long Sunday run (16-20 milers) took it out of me like this too...I will say that I've peed 2 more times brown red...that was different...and made me think of googling to see if cherry soda could do this...it said beets and a few other things and sugary food colors...

Also of course bad things including kidney stones...which I think is a lot of these spells...only time now is when I've run long...you may not understand I'm not Ironman right now...7 milers at first really took it out of me...and I've gone through spells where I had to back off and walk and do as short as 3 miles on Sunday so when I went back I worked my way up the mileage chart slowly...including increasing miles slowly...used to in this shape I could have pushed myself to run further and endured the agony...now it's small steps...

We'll see what happens...they ran blood test on me and I've been open with the doctor about this...he's a good one and I've had him about 5 years or more now so he knows my history.

I will get a little gross here...used to when I ran hard and long and fast my guts would tear up and I could crap blood...not a lot and I NEVER peed blood that I remember...even though I read of runners that did...anyway for whatever reason it's pee not poop right now.

Nah...I feel ok.
