Personal:

I'm a junior at Hurricane High School. I love music. I sing in the chamber choir and I play the piano and the guitar. Other sports that I love include basketball, soccer, and racquetball. By the way, if anyone's up for a game of racquetball, I'm game! Anyways, gotta run...

5 mile biking trail loop in St. George at night.  For some reason my hips have been hurting ever since the half.  I can't figure out why.  Other than that it was a normal run.

I hear you on the unexpected soreness. I had an achilles pain come out of the blue on me. Regardless, you had a lot tougher run in the half than I've had lately. And perhaps if you've never raced a half, your body is still saying "woah hold up! that was a mega race!" Sick 1/2 time and take my advice (which I have learned from our smart FRB friends): Listen to your body and don't push too hard during your recovery week as it might set you back. Sometimes it's good to give the body a rest.
