Short-Term Running Goals:

Maybe run a few more marathons?? Stay healthy, motivated and consistent.  Races are fun, but unlike the hokey pokey, its not what its all about for me.  Its about health, sanity and feeling great about myself bc I can call myself a runner. :)

My lower back has been hurting for over a week now but I woke up on Saturday unable to even move. I felt paralyzed in my bed. With help I got up, took a lortab and had to get ready for a funeral. As the day went on I was able to move better and better so I thought I would feel better on Sunday. On Sunday I woke up and it was worse. I was able to make it into the bathroom but at one point I thought I would be stuck in there. I literally couldn't take a step bc it hurt so bad to make any movement. My torso is in the shape of a "C" it looks detatched from my hips. I'm going to the chiropractor in a few hours and hopefully he can fix me. I have hurt like this before but its been a long time.
MY theory..I had the BT injuries that hurt in my hamstrings and piriformis muscles. Maybe I was compensating one way or another while running to not feel those injuries and in return have been slowly messing up my back. IDK. Maybe I'm wrong. Should be interesting what the chiro says. Get High for me my friends! I will spend the day high on lortab again. {not as cool} 

Chiropractor: helped. I felt great when I left there, now I'm feeling tight again. He recommended swimming. Doing the stroke that you look like you have frog legs {don't know the name of it} said its the best way to strengthen my piriformis and core. Said I will be back to running in no time but to stick with swimming for a few days and see what happens. Supposed to go back on Wed. to see him again for another adjustment. He did some shock thing on my back for 30 min to loosen, adjusted my back, neck and feet. Was nice.
