10 miles in 7:56 pace We had a little scare yesterday when after searching the yard and the house we couldn't find our 1 yo Ali anywhere. Our 5yo and 4 yo mentioned that they had just run around the block without telling us they were doing that, so we immediatley knew Ali had followed them and gotten lost. Sure enough, we ran around the block and found her in the arms of our back door neighbor, looking quite startled. That feeling of not knowing where your child is...even if only for a few minutes...is gut wrenching. So this morning after having nightmares of losing Ali and waking up with a severe kink in my back, I very slowly winced through 10 miles. Every quick movement in my neck shot pain down my back and shoulder. I just scheduled an appointment with Chiro Richey and Massage Therapist Koli to get some relief. Oh, and I was going to do my long run today but I just decided yesterday that I'm going to do a 15 mile race this Saturday up near Nederland instead. Aaron and I had been planning on taking the kids on a quick overnight camp trip near that area anyway, and when my friend Tony mentioned that there is a race going on that day and invited me to join him, I couldn't resist. So we'll go camp near Ned and do the race for a good long run beat down at 9,000ft. |
