I needed to get in an 11-12 miler this morning. Tom is at the WBR so I met up with the SF group at 5:00. I knew there would be a little peer pressure to go more. I was willing to do 14-15 but no more. They tried to talk me into 17 but I didn't let the pressure get to me. I turned around with one other person to get to my 14 while the others continued on. I hung with Michelle and Josse for a bit. I'm not sure what I was thinking hanging with the speedster girls. After awhile with them I turned around and joined back in with the gang I can hang with for a longer period of time. The last few miles was on my own and I slowed down a bit because the IT band on my left leg started feeling a little pain. I want to avoid IT band issues at all costs! That's what took me from trying to train for a marathon a few years ago. I only got about 4 1/2 hours of sleep last night and I have to go volunteer at Park City at the finish line for WBR from 1:00 - 6:00. So I am going to try to go back for a few zzzzzz's.
