I've been running since I was nine.  I'm married to a fellow runner who inspires and supports me.  We have two children:  Cole (4) and Lily (18 mos.)  I help Bill Cobler coach cross country at East High School.

AM:  I ran an eight mile recovery run this morning.  I ran the 1300W to 2700W loop.  As I was running back on 5400 S, I noticed that some high school student lost their library books on the way to school.  (Chasing Fire and Mockingjay from the Hunger Games series.)  I thought of being a Good Samaritan and returning them to the school, but really didn't want to carry two hardbound novels while I ran.  I guess I'm not as altruistic as I should be. 

I felt okay on the run.  My left hip is still nagging, and I can't tell if I'm making it worse by the constant stretching and strength work.  I may be overdoing it a bit.  It doesn't hurt much while I run, it's just sore.  But, as I go through the day I really notice it.  Hopefully a couple of easy days will help matters.  I may cross train tomorrow if I don't notice any improvement.

4 miles to go this evening!
