Well, I am still running and am now a month away from the Marathon. I hurt my Hip Flexor (Muscle) before Thanksgiving and haven’t run since. It is feeling quite a bit better. I saw the Doctor on Monday and she gave me some good stretches and some Anti-inflamatories. And confirmed it was the Hip Flexor.

I will run again seriously next week and try to get back in the swing of it. I was up to 17 miles on my long runs and 34 miles a week, at about a 10:15-10:30 pace.

I am hoping that I can come back from this injury and make it on Jan 11th for the Marathon. I feel as if I have to do it. I mean we have 9 people coming down to Orlando to watch me do this…..*sigh* the pressure is on. LOL

I am going to keep this updated in the last final weeks of my push. I am hoping to run this Saturday (the 6th) a bit…

Please pray for me (if you do that sorta thing).

well, off to stretches and yoga to finish the night.
