Personal:

I'm married with four children.  I run with a group called the Bingham Butt-Kickers, a really fun group of people that gets me out running early on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and sometimes Saturdays.   I recently found out that I've been running with poor form for many years, which has probably contributed to some nagging aches and pains I've had for years.  One of my big goals now is to be able to run with better form and to have running feel more effortless.  I hope this won't take too many years to achieve!

I had a busy day with helping my daughter with some school stuff and then I had a dentist's appointment (no cavities!) so my running took a hit today.  I needed kind of a rest day because my ligaments hooking my hamstrings to my glutes were quite sore today (I bet some of you didn't even know you had ligaments hooking hamstrings to glutes.  The things you learn being a runner and dealing with injury.)  I still managed to get in a quality 4 miles.  Now for tomorrow and the three 5-k's!  I can't wait!!

Thanks for the anatomy lesson. Although, it may hav been more than I needed to know. LOL. Glutes.

I have learned way too much anatomy from dealing with tight muscles. My massage therapist makes way too much money off of me! Great job on no cavities ( I am a dental hygienist so things like that make me happy:)

Marcie, thanks for the comment. I will try to keep flossing and keep having no cavities. Good luck with all your running goals!
