Our goal for 2025 is set. Sub 2:50 marathon is a goal that is pretty audacious, right up until that line of unrealistic. The space we love to occupy.

The 1% Rule

Getting better everyday doesnโ€™t mean running faster every day. It means you find a way to recover a little better, it means you take some time to relax, sometimes it even means you show up to an empty gym on a holiday Monday.

The inches we need are everywhere around us.

The road to sub 2:50 steams into its third week tomorrow.

The picture tells the story ๐Ÿ“–

โž• Sometimes observation will tell a very clear story. Here we have a patient who reports with low back pain. As you can see (black arrow) the overdevelopment or hyper trophy of his lower thoracic erector muscles and the underdevelopment or flattening of his lumbar (red) erectors.

โž• Upon further evaluation this patient had little to no control of being able to actively move their low back irrespective of the rest of their spine. Additionally, they had an obvious folding or hinge point as they moved through the cat-camel exercise.

โž• This is a great example of a patient who requires minimum hands on intervention and more active movement based rehabilitation. The patient needs to learn how to actively recruit their lower back erector musculature while allowing the overdeveloped thoracic musculature to relax. With continued practice this patient is already demonstrating improved motor control of their low back and their pain has lessened in each of the last 3 visits.
