If I had listened to my sore hip from the beginning and given it more rest, I probably wouldn't have had to stop running for a whole year to let it heal when it finally got so bad I couldn't ignore it anymore. So better to make adjustments early on, rather than put it off til it gets even worse and maybe irreversibly damaged. <br /><br />In the meantime I'll keep my fingers crossed for your toe! ;-)Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16678913589022140356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8925337665341056813.post-20295861791155741172014-08-22T08:26:28.575-04:002014-08-22T08:26:28.575-04:00Happy Birthday!

I say no more marathons yet they keep happening...no more after NYC. Really.

If I skip it because I just don't want to, I feel guilty. I never make up for a missed workout, read several articles about this that you shouldn't do that. And I'm not afraid to lose it all if I miss one workout. I know from experience now that when I don't do much for a month or longer (what just happened) I do lose it all. <br />Franhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10287705328335828286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8925337665341056813.post-60812788210305694302014-08-18T22:46:42.292-04:002014-08-18T22:46:42.292-04:00Can you tape the toe to one next to it for protect...Can you tape the toe to one next to it for protection?

We survived the ride without any flats, fortunately! Tina @GottaRunNowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16321814382532015313noreply@blogger.com
