It was raining steadily when I woke up, so I decided to go to the gym and run on the treadmill. In addition to not getting soaked, I thought running on the treadmill might help me to keep a closer eye on my form so I can work out the SI issues.  Of course it stopped raining by the time I started running and I could have enjoyed a perfectly nice run outside, but I stayed on the treadmill anyway.  Miles were gradually descending; starting at 7:30 pace, finishing at 6:30 pace; the middle five were huddled in the 6:45 range. 

The SI pain is certainly still present, but I am less afraid of running on it since I have a better idea of what is going on.  I went to the chiro last night (Dr. Wimmer) and he took xrays. I have another appt today to look at the pictures and figure out what precisely needs to be done.  He spent quite a bit of time talking with me about my running and how the pain occurs. I am looking forward to seeing what we can do.
