The Black Sheep group was running hills today and I didn't feel up to that with my SI issue. So I warmed up with the group and then Kathryn and I ran a few more easy miles. We connected back up with the group for the flat part of the workout, which was 6 x 400m, half flat/half hill. Fortunately the rest of the group, i.e., Josh, were already wiped out from running the hill repeats before this and it at least appeared that I could hold my own. The SI followed the typical pattern today; pain in the first couple of miles, and tapering off after that. It's actually not so bad once it warms up but it's no fun at the beginning. I'm trying hard to run with my pelvis tilted forward, and really work the forward lean. ChiRunning, basically.
