Another late night-er, but at least I stuck to my goal this week.  Five run -- no matter what.  Thanks to all of you for keeping me to my goal; it's always hard getting back into the rhythm of consistent running when you've had to take time off.

PT update:  My hips are moving correctly, according to my physical therapist.  She thinks the new pains I have occasionally are because muscles that had become weak (due to incorrect alignment) are having to strengthen and stretch.  Hopefully I will continue to improve.  I don't have pain while I run, but around the house - the step and twist motion sometimes smarts.   

 HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all you wonderful women who impact the world in positive ways everyday!!

Hahahaha! You guessed my weakness, Lybi! But I actually finished it last night .... (correction) this morning. So, I should be able to run ... and function again today. : )
