I want one, it's just that $ is so tight for us right now with the holidays. Bad timing, ya know?<BR/><BR/>Earlier this year, I had horrible issues with my hip. Turns out my spine was horribly out of alignment and the result was agonizing pain in my hip due to pinched nerves and the like. I have been seeing a chiropractor religiously now, and I have had no hip problems in months.

Been there, done that. I can get out of alignment on a sneeze so I do go regularly to a chiro. It really has been the best thing I've invested in for maintenance. I can skip the usual monthly massages even with a once a month chiro appt. (and now my insurance is even going to cover it! Yeah!)Vickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12302710072433158197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2318685393163464695.post-26539496054050375192007-11-16T22:32:00.000-06:002007-11-16T22:32:00.000-06:00I'm in for the shirt.

They work on my feet, butt, back. Actually my last 2 runs were so much better. So whatever they're doin' seems to be working. I just think that if any little "thing" is off, your running gets totally screwed. How do those professional people manage this stuff??P.O.M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16410533843419723414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2318685393163464695.post-42751868750136797342007-11-16T17:53:00.000-06:002007-11-16T17:53:00.000-06:00Take it easy on that hip.

They will definitely make your legs stronger on race day and the hills you face will not take as much out of you.<BR/>Nancy, I would start really conservatively on hill training. I think there is even more risk of injury with hills than speedwork. Definitely not more than 1 day a week and incorporate it into a usual training run.<BR/>I am proud to say that I will be doing your 8 on the 8th.Bill Carterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17303668807091595615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2318685393163464695.post-54383162593418129702007-11-16T14:18:00.000-06:002007-11-16T14:18:00.000-06:00hey nancy ... if i remember correctly, the hill wo...hey nancy ... if i remember correctly, the hill work was incorporated into a run ... so i'd run 2 or 3 miles to the hill, do my repeats & then run the 2 or 3 home. so - its part of the run ... i guess as opposed to driving to a hill to just run the repeats & drive home. does that make sense?zannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17169968339980800861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2318685393163464695.post-33393959479474596712007-11-16T13:45:00.000-06:002007-11-16T13:45:00.000-06:00So glad we have an op for shirts--that will make t...So glad we have an op for shirts--that will make the virtual part seem more actual. <BR/><BR/>Keep up the work with the PT. The challenge is continuing the exercises when not seeing results--or even when seeing them.
