I just realized that I haven't run a single Monday this entire month!!! What a slacker! I must really hate Mondays more than I consciously realize. ;o) Different route today - again. But it wasn't a great route because there were parts when there was no sidewalk and the snow is melting. Yup, that's right . . . the SNOW!!! On Saturday the temperatures got up in the 70's and we woke up on Sunday morning to a couple inches of snow. Love Colorado! (crazy place) :) Thanks, everyone, for your support in my first race. It was fun and I learned quite a lot about myself and how I race. I've been figuring that I actually could've given more at the very end. So, today when I got to the end of my run and my body was trying to tell me to walk, I kicked it up and sprinted home!!! Orthopedist today said the cartilage (sp?) in my hips is great. It's not my IT band of bursitis. There's a small cyst on the inside of my hip joint that he's not terrible worried about in itself, but he wants an MRI to make sure there's nothing causing it. He also gave me a script for PT. Happy days (except the thought of sitting in a noisy MRI machine for 1/2 an hour!!! I keep thinking about it and getting shivers!) |
