Beautiful Day!

It was such a beautiful day and it was great seeing everyone and meeting new people. I LOVE SATURDAYS!! It was so much fun watching Mark at the "filming" and everyone falling in behind him with the "I AM A MARATHONER" line! It had to be tough on him having to start over several time, but what a trouper and he did it. I hope we get to see the video at some point. AND it was the first time that I really ran. I loved it. But, I walked the 6 miles and about half way through, my hip joint starting hurting and it left me with a serious limp today. I've had a little problem with my right hip for years, but this is the first time since starting MM that I've had a "flare up" with it. I'll be fine - I ran today! That's what's a little weird - I didn't think I would make it back to our starting point because it was hurting so bad; but when we crossed the street at College Street and Parkway, I ran and it didn't hurt at all - then it started hurting again when I was walking. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to do like Forrest Gump and RUN everywhere I go!

Have a great week everyone and BLOG ON MARATHONERS!!!

    Take care of your hip and it will take care of you! Thanks for the help on the video and I hope the running didn't aggravate it.
