Keeping it UP!

Well I ran my almost 12 miles last Saturday and then trained through the week....and then yesterday I ran 5.50 miles with the team. This past week has been hard b/c my leg is starting to bother me a bit. It isn't my knee...let's set the record straight! It is my leg. I spoke to one of my coaches about it and he seems to think that it might be my IT Band....all I have to say to that is CRAP!
I am stretching every chance I get and rolling on my foam roller (sort of like a deep tissue massage but it HURTS..and makes you want to scream obscenities). It started to feel better and then we had our run yesterday. I ran well with the team. Ran a solid 4+ miles before I had to stop to shake it off.
My sister came into town and I dragged her along with me to the run yesterday. She hadn't run in awhile and was a bit nervous about it. I knew that she would do fine. While we were running she kept saying, "Don't worry about me..keep your pace. I'll be fine." She saw me continuing to look behind me to make sure she was okay! I worry....what can I say!?
We both made it in....and we finished strong!
Afterwards we were going to see Jersey Boys..that is a GREAT show....just one thing to keep in mind....DON'T RUN ALMOST 6 MILES BEFORE AND THINK YOU WILL BE ABLE TO STAY AWAKE THROUGH THE WHOLE THING!!!!!
