Decided to give my body 2 more days of rest. I went to the gym and lifted for an hour. I know that isn't a long time, but considering I hardly lift - it seemed like an eternity. I'm most certainly going to be sore tomorrow!

Piraformis already feels better after the shot. Hip feel a bit better, but not 100%. Doctor said it could take 3-4 days for the cortisone to kick in. Hopefully by Monday when I start running again!

I grew up in Kingman. We were in the St. George temple district before the Las Vegas temple was built. We would always stop at the Pizza Factory to eat. One time my brother ate like a whole pizza. It's about a 5 or 6 hr. trip to St. George from Kingman. When we got about 1 minute away from home, he threw up all over the back of Bishop's van.
