Long-Term Running Goals:

I love training with others both on road and trail. I also find benefits of running solo when I need to focus and regroup.

Fun fact: Although I prefer to run outside, I don't mind the treadmill for pace accountability and for the blind assumption that I can run really fast. I have a lot of secret treadmill PR's at 0% incline:)

I am married to a supportive and driven husband. Together we enjoy geocaching, hiking, camping, reading and playing games with our three rambunctious children.

Aside from running, I am a homemaker and a Mental Health Therapist. Running has given me the ability to better concert my energies between my family, faith and friends.

AM: 4 miles easy.  

PM: Ohh! So good to have some answers that finally make some sense! Today I saw an actual Physical Therapist, no Chiropractor mumbo jumbo. I loved her and wanted to put her in my little (GU) pocket and take her everywhere, especially to the gym with me! She listened and was so thorough. She kept asking and testing till she got it right and then created a great plan to follow. So I was a bit off with my initial diagnosis I gave myself. I thought I had injured my hamstring that connects to my butt bone- nope. I have injured my sacrotuberous ligament. that connects to my ischum, or bottom of spine. I guess it reeks havoc on everything else anyway. But the best part of this is that I discovered it is not the main concern or contributor. My pelvis is out of alignment, and just has been for most of my life. She said that not everyone is aligned perfectly and that's okay if they aren't athletes, but for runners it messes you up. That explains why I have multiple injuries that are always right side specific. I could have used this info in college. Sheesh. Anyway, she made a great plan for me and I plan to do it for the next month. 3hrs of PT exercise tonight, it wasn't easy. I would have rather gone for a run:) No running for next two weeks, bike and stretches are on the menu. Things are looking up and hope is starting to restore. Halleluiah!

Physical Therapy appointment. Stretches with lots of squats, spinning, and some other seemingly pointless but effective moves. 2 hours of exercise total. She changed her mind and gave me the go ahead to run a little.....
