Plus I really do need to roll every day it seems.

I've never rolled before. Other than a little hip strenthening exercises, I just run. Almost every time I try something new, I get hurt. Then I stop doing it and become better again.

What does rolling do? It makes sore places better? Stiff places less stiff?

13.2 for me. People must be partying hard around here. Once again I barely saw anyone. Especially the first 5 miles. It is sunny and 60s so wonderful out.

Oski, isn't trail running harder on the hips (and all joints for that matter) than road running? Are you back to 100%?

LRB had it - it's an old railroad that now is a crushed gravel trail. Which was a little muddy today, meh. Definitely not hitting "real" trails yet, but I am hopeful it will be sooner rather than later!

Here's a photo of our rail trail in the summer:

And just so you aren't too jealous of my pretty place to run, here it is in the winter:

It's not fair to the trail to compare these two pics. I'm sure the same spot the summer pic was taken must look better on any given day than the spot where the winter pic was taken.

Heh, not really. I was only a half mile or so from the first to the second! It's still pretty... in it's own, cold, miserable way.

The day before my first marathon, sorry, but I won't be throwing you a party worth remembering Smile But I'll be glad to go meet you and wish you happy birthday over a coffee or something, and if you're here on Friday, I might even have a beer or two!
