What a fabulous weekend I am having. My 5 mile race went very well yesterday and my finish time was 45:24. I got to meet Lisa Rainsberger at the packet pickup and then spend some time with her at a dinner party last night. Lisa is the last U.S. female to win the Boston Marathon. She's very down to earth and cool and her 6 year old son, Ian, is adorable.We joined 4 others on a long run this morning. Everyone else stopped at 12 miles but I continued on home which gave me 15.5. I was getting pretty hot and tired but it went reasonably well. I remember a few months ago when my first 15 miler was absolutely miserable. While it's still not easier, it's definitely easier than the first time.
My hip has been feeling a tad better but I'm still being careful to ice and stretch. The chiropractor said my vertebrae look good but that my hips are a little unlevel which is probably causing my problem -- along with some piriformis or sacroiliac issues contributing.
Here's a photo of Lisa and myself at the packet pickup.
