Notes
DNF Ran only the canyon first portion of the run. Started out this race feeling pain in my right glute. I was worried because I had taken prescription strength Naproxen for other woman issues. I tried to hold back a bit but it was difficult because of the steep down in American Fork Canyon. Just as we were exiting the canyon to go on the trail, I heard and felt a pop in my glute. It stopped me and I assessed for a minute or two and decided to hitch a ride to the finish from a spectator and there were a lot of them at that area of the race.
I got to the finish just as Craig was completing his 1:14 and 2nd place race and also got to see and cheer for Rayna for the marathon, Pope, Amber H, etc. etc. That part was really fun and I was actually glad I didn't have to race that second difficult portion of the race. I followed up and had a 30 minute glute massage from Erna at Dr Fletchers place and she assessed that it was not nerve because it was not swollen and from the muscle tightness, she thought the joint popped over the muscle. Will follow up with Dr Fletcher or a specialist.
