7 miles in 7:51 pace

Wasn't sure what time Aaron came to bed last night, but I know it was after 2 a.m. so when I awoke at 6:15 a.m. and all three kids were already awake and it sounded like it was hailing outside I decided to just take the kids with me to the gym so Aaron could sleep a little longer and  I wouldn't be pelted on my run.  

 Ran on the TM, took it easy for the first 6 miles then just decided to bump up the pace to 7:08 pace for the last mile to see how my hip responded to a little pick-up.  Seemed to handle it fine.  Maybe I'll try a little more pace pushing later this week.

You've been so consistent these past 2 weeks. I'm so glad your injury is getting better!

Send some good "potty washing" soap down to AZ - sounds like Burt needs some!

I think we had rain over night in these parts, but it was dry this morning. I wonder what we're going to get tonight.

I'm glad to see you getting back to your normal awesomeness.

Yes. Send me some soap. But don't send it ground. They'll have to drive over the dam, and with all that dam traffic, it could take a while.

Grinding soap up sounds like a bad idea

Nan, I think it was you and allie mentioning about sometimes the hip is fine at fast speeds but not slow speeds (and vice versa). THere was a small aritcle in hte UK RW magazine about the fact that if you imagine when you run along a white line, at slow speeds your feet are closer to the line but as it goes faster they come further out from the line which changes the stress on the ITB/hip etc. Anyway I thought I would just throw that at you, might not be useful but hey...

ha ha Burt.

Chris you are right same thing with me.....

although when running fast we have to hold good form so that is the thing tooo! slower speeds we dont and cant hold good form for as long hence the break down so we all need to make ourselves stronger

so here goes with the ploy do the blooming challenge people it will help honest ;-)

oh and Chris those butt exercises I have not been given yet so I will try them tonight burning :)
