Trail run in the playground today.  I took yesterday off because of SI issues.  Sunday I could hardly walk or sit, today I am a lot better, but still sore.  I have been doing some exercises to release the SI and it has seemed to help.  I think some of it is coming from how I sleep and the rest from tight hamstrings.  I have never had issues like this before, so it has to be something newer.

Anyway, instead of a blizzard it was 61 degrees this week!  I ran out with my boys  and did an out and back, while they did a loop.  6 miles on the shoreline trail in 7:53 pace, not bad.  Felt pretty decent today.

Ran from the hotel and headed East down Willis into a residential neighbood built around small lakes.  and back.  The whole run was rpogessive, but the 5th mile I hit 5:55.  6:58 pace for the run.  It was pretty warm out and then the water was off at the hotel for a while so I couldn't shower.  Good run though.  Lucy races tonight at 6:30pm
