Marathon Finish

Running Accomplishments:

I have run 5K throughout my life.  I just ran the Colder Boulder in 25:33 which is a PR for me.

I ran two half marathons this past summer and my fastest time was around 2:09:? (My chip had issues and I was given a gun time but not a chip time, but I know I finished under 2:10:00)

Short-Term Running Goals:

I want to run a marathon during the summer of 2010.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Keep running for fitness and fun.  I would like to improve my pace to comfortably average 30 seconds faster then I run now.

Personal:

I am married and have three children.  I enjoy friends, piano, singing, crafting, and organizing/cleaning my home.

My left hip has been hurting me a little for awhile.  I thought it was my old shoes.  I got new shoes for Christmas and this week my hip seems to be hurting even more.  I don't know if I don't have the right shoes or if I need to take a little break to let my hip heal.  Today I didn't run, I did a 35 minute yoga video.  It felt good to stretch out and loosen up.  I am debating whether I should run tomorrow or give my hip some rest.  I guess I will see how it feels throughout the day.

Bummer about the hip. Maybe you can check the Injuries Board on the Discussion Forum to see if anyone has had something similar.

I think maybe a little rest is in order. You can sometimes take a short rest when something hurts a little and thus prevent having to take a long rest when it hurts a lot.
