First of all, my hip flexors (think they're hip flexors...the tendons in the front of my hips...attaching thigh to pelvis) are so sore! Yep, that's from yesterday's Ab Ripper video. I know it's good for me. My core has been so weak since my injury.
Today I ran with Julie. I was worried that I was going to slow her down. I know she runs with Kris, and Kris is much faster than I am. But we ran a perfect pace together. We did 9 on the path in 1:43. It was a beautiful sunny day! It was really a perfect run. We even ran (not walked) over Wanda. I'm so glad we got the run in...perfect way to start the day!
I'm also excited that I've been averaging 11:30 for my runs. I'm not sure if I should move up pace groups for summer training or not. I don't want to kill myself to do 11:30, but I don't want to hold myself back at 12:00. It's definately something to think about. I know Keith will want me to lead again, but I have a few months to make my decision. I think that running with out a watch has helped. I'm not binding myself to a time, I'm just going with what my body wants. It's not as evenly paced as I used to be, but it is consistantly faster. We'll see!
