Born again Christian. I have been a type 1 diabetic since 2015 and celiac since 2018, and even though I have had my struggles with it, I still strive to live a healthy life. Senior at Utah State University studying Health Science. Hoping to go into pharmaceuticals and focus on diabetic supplies and medicine, because I am quite passionate about helping those that have the same medical condition as I do.

AM- Well, all I can say is that injuries happen in running. Whether you are young or old, it seems that some time in most people's running career, they are bound to end up with an injury at some point. Since about January, I have had hip pain and lock ups during many of my training runs, and I have just tolerated it since then. Strides and somewhat speed work would never feel quite right, and my overall stride and cadence hasn't felt good since December. I went for my goal pace from the gun, but my hip started to lock up and hurt almost immediately. Had to stop several times starting at about mile 8 or 9, and just sort of shuffled my way to the finish line. When I finished, my legs were not even tired, because of the slow pace, so I know that I will recover quite quickly from this marathon, which is one positive thing from this race. And even though it was a very disappointing race, I still tried my best to enjoy the race. Probably going to take some time off from serious training for a week or two, and just do some cross training, and maybe run only if I feel like it. First, I need to go to some chiropractor/specialist to get my hip feeling 100% again. Then I will focus on my summer/fall build up races!

AM- 5.5 miles easy past Winnelson and back. 7:31 average. Legs surprisingly had a ton of spring in them today, considering that I ran a marathon just a couple days ago. The hip actually felt pretty good, but I am just going to run honestly whenever I feel like it for the next week or two, then I will see how everything is feeling. Also going to schedule a chiropractor appointment sometime this week.

AM- Easy 8.4 miles from home, then ended up finishing with 3x (roughly) 200m, plus some shorter 60-80m strides. Overall the legs and body felt great this morning, and no hip pain, which is super good. I am still puzzled why I had so many hip lock ups and pains during the marathon last weekend.

AM- 6.6 miles 7:23 average. Then did a little 0.6 pickup, once I got back home. Went to the chiropractor this morning, and was able to get some adjustments for my hip. I haven't had any pain this entire week running since SLC marathon, but the chiropractor did say that I needed some alignments.

AM- 16.4 miles from the Vernal Park, out towards Naples, up Aggie, then back to the park. 7:21 average. Really needed a drink, then finished with a mile consisting of several short strides. Hip felt great, and overall I felt strong today. Really warm out this morning!

AM- Nice 5 mile walk this morning, listening to Mark Levin podcast. Going to start my late spring/summer training block next Wednesday. I have already signed up for the Dino Half that is coming up in a few weeks, plus some other races throughout the summer. Might do some mileage this week, with a longer run on Saturday, but not a lot this week.

AM- Just an easy run from the park, out to Naples Chevron, then back. Might double today with another easy run tonight, because I really have wanted to get in a run at night since most evenings lately have had pretty nice weather.

PM- 6.6 easy miles from Aggie and down Maine. Had some light rain about halfway through, but then it cleared up towards the end. 7:23 average.

AM- Got out for my run a little later in the morning today. (11 am). In reality it wasn't very warm, but it just felt pretty toasty outside this morning. Probably because I have been used to running in weather cooler than 50 degrees. Overall felt pretty good!

AM- 16.4 miles on the same route as last Saturday. 7:39 average. Legs felt pretty good until about 5 miles in, then they felt pretty heavy after that. 2.2 mile cooldown afterwards at Legacy, just trying to flush out some of that heavy-leg feeling.
