September Sports-XC

Great time for that first mile! Miranda and Avery (cousin) at Eye Opener. Opening with a word of prayer.

XC - Cross Country time at Dorman. Miranda's knee started hurting at the very first race in August. She tried to run with a brace at Eye Opener on September 5th. Her time was 24 min 50 sec for the 5 K and she was in pain. Doctor visits...MRI's and finally the diagnosis "tendonitis." The doctor gave her the option of running through the pain or she could stop running. She chose to run through the pain. She ran the next race on September 15th in 22 min 25 sec and placed in the top 7. Her knee still hurt, but she pushed through it. On September 22nd she ran a 24 min 22 sec time and was miserable when she finished. A friend that is a PT encouraged her to rest. She is not running (she is biking, stretching and "resting.")
