Two weeks away!

Todays run of just over 11 miles went super great!  Tried to keep my pace relaxed and just wanted to make it through the run.  A little bit of a twinge in my hip, but I adjusted my stride slightly to try and manage it.  It never did get very bad so I was super glad about that.   Got approval from the doctor for another 4 physical therapy appointments, just to get me through the half!  Things are going well at the moment and I want to stay on top of the healing!  :-) 

Ran the first part of the run with Lisa and the second half with Tina!  I definitely wouldn't have made it without being able to run with the girls, it's amazing how much I rely on them to keep me going.  I am so impressed with how well they do!  :-)   

A couple of times during the run, I had to focus on things other than running and tried counting really slow to refocus my energy.  It helped, though I never really did make it past counting to 15 :-).  

I am super excited right now for the half, even though having not run 13.1 has me slightly worried.  I am hoping that the excitement of "Race Day" will get me through the extra 1.75 that I will need. 

Tina today did her full 6.2 miles today!  She did sign up for the 10K and I have the utmost confidence that she will do GREAT!   --Steph
