Love it! I hope it doesn't last 6 months either, but however long it is, I will do whatever they say to get better. <br /><br />Doing my last run this morning before Sunday. I think I will feel really good by then, I hope anyway.<br /><br />I do have a foam roller, but don't use it as much as I should. I have it out now and plant to get to know it really well, LOL.<br /><br />After looking at the race and info. I plan to bring my own GU's even though they will have some, just incase they don't have my flavor. They have a water stop at every mile, so I will leave my handheld at home. Happy about that.<br /><br />Thanks!Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04220895653072940035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2706096851240402022.post-69813713185236039732012-09-18T19:46:10.187-07:002012-09-18T19:46:10.187-07:00Hoping the Chiro helps.

To tell you the honest truth, it can take a long while to get rid of that. Mine lasted 6 months, sorry, I hope yours doesn't last as long. Plus my doc did nothing to help me at least you will have PT! Stretch, Stretch, Stretch your calves all the way up to your hips (including your IT band). Also get in a love/hate relationship with a foam roller. Kick butt Sunday I cannot wait to hear about it and see a pic!<br /><br />I do not bring my own water if it is a bigger or known to be well run race. As far as fuel bring whatever you have been using on your long runs. A race is not time to try anything new.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2706096851240402022.post-34125909209157249442012-09-18T13:01:44.613-07:002012-09-18T13:01:44.613-07:00Thanks Hot Mama!Thanks Hot Mama!Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04220895653072940035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2706096851240402022.post-36619235937497018242012-09-18T09:20:34.125-07:002012-09-18T09:20:34.125-07:00I love a good chiro adjustment, and need one now! ...I love a good chiro adjustment, and need one now! I have a tilted pelvis which caused my right leg to be shorter than the other. Once adjusted, my legs were 100% the same. My hip injury is a result of the tilted pelvis, and I'm working on getting back into my shoes and on the road. Good luck, I know you'll do great in the race!!JAMRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10699891999225058121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2706096851240402022.post-9384086110842847082012-09-18T05:13:39.517-07:002012-09-18T05:13:39.517-07:00Once again, thank you!

I love that you will meet SBS and Dimity and just think it will be a fabulous weekend altogether.

And Dr. Sardella's great, too. If he says you need orthotics, his are definitely the best to get - they're different from most other orthotics - softer and way more comfortable. Good luck with all your appointments, and with the race this weekend!!!

I guess it takes time for my body to get back in synch or something. I don't work out intensely within 24 hours of seeing the chiro. I try and walk or do yoga instead.<br /><br />Good luck to you!Abbeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14765172219724722978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2706096851240402022.post-51683677557556148812012-09-17T17:19:28.637-07:002012-09-17T17:19:28.637-07:00Thanks Hiker Mom!

Depends on what they do whether it's painful or not. Sorry:( I do not carry my own water, I rely on the water stops. I do bring Sharkies energy chews and they are amazing!! Love them! Good luck at the chiro, I definitely think it will be good for you:)Rachelle Qhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09617310026581589214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2706096851240402022.post-90824214368548481582012-09-17T11:58:40.395-07:002012-09-17T11:58:40.395-07:00Thank you so much Michelle!

I just was reading about the race and it does sound like they really cover the water stops well and starting at mile 6 they have Gu's and pretzels, etc. Yeah!Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04220895653072940035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2706096851240402022.post-30350824944443588352012-09-17T11:48:23.895-07:002012-09-17T11:48:23.895-07:00Glad you got good news!

I have sacroiliac joint issues occasionally, too - mostly when I ramp up my mileage (I am 100% certain it's a result of having three children - my hips will never be the same again). The chiro should help tremendously with that. It doesn't hurt at all. I was nervous at first, too, but a good chiro will be very gentle. Everything I've heard about the Ocean's half is that the water stops are very, very well stocked, so I don't think you need to bring your own water. I think they have Gu, also, but I always bring my own Gu, just so that I'm sure I have the same flavors I've used in training. Great idea to have your first half be local, so the family can be there - it'll be so awesome to have them see you cross that finish line : ) Good luck, and have fun!!!! Oh, and yes - I'd just do a couple of short, easy runs this week. If the race is on Sunday, I wouldn't run after Thursday. Two days of pre-race rest will feel really great!
