Personal:

I am married with 3 lovely children 29, 21, 15  a dog named Koda and a cat named Blue.  Love to run and be outside.  I believe that if you think you can do it and you work hard enough any thing is possible.   Life flashes by in the blink of an eye, enjoy it while it last and remember there is a lot more to life than running. I coach high school swim and love it!

Went a little early to get a longer warmup before everyone got there, I need a long warmup before I do a tempo.  Workout was a 4 mile tempo at HM pace,  I felt pretty good but just wish I was about 10 sec. faster per mile.  My miles were 6:56,  6:59, 6:54, 7:13 all the miles were pretty flat with some very small ups and downs, the last miles had the most gradual up in it.  came home and stretch and went upto Dr. Dawson, a NUCCA chiropractor and when I got home my neck spasmed so bad I can barely move it or hold it up.  This is not good for running.  Icing it and IB. and tylenol  and hopefully it feels better.

Nice workout! A longer warmup is always good when it's super cold outside.

Do you think the spasm was because of the chiropractic treatment?

I think so, sometimes when your are really out of alignment you muscles freak out when things get straightened out.
