A few weeks ago I ran with the New York Road Runners in the Haiti Benefit 4 Mile. There was a great turnout of runners all over New York, and plenty of them we all know from Twitter and Dailymile. My IT band held up, and I had some decently quick miles throughout the race. For a while there I thought I wasn’t going to be able to complete the Paris Marathon, which I’m running this spring, but the other day I had a great long run (17mi), an I’m pretty sure I’ll be able to make it to the finish in Paris. I guess all that cross training paid off!
