The doctors and staff of Exum Chiropractic Clinic want to congratulate Tamara Carlson-Jones on completing the Boston Marathon!! On a very hot day in Boston, 24,000 runners strapped on their running shoes and took off on a 26.1 mile journey up and down hilly streets through the city. Tamara was able to complete this grueling race with a time of 3 hours and 45 minutes!! She finished in the top 10% of all the runners!! In the photo below you can see the race course on the shoes Tamara is wearing. The shoe depicts the race from start to finish with the hills included.
In June of 2011 a friend suggested Tamara come see Dr. Moroff of the Exum Chiropractic Clinic. She had just been diagnosed with a stress fracture in her foot. She was in training for the Boston Marathon. She could tell that when she ran something was not right. Through various techniques like muscle work, kenisio taping, laser and adjustments, something changed. Tamara noticed she was running with correct form. Tamara feels that with her treatment, keeping her muscles and structure in alignment, she was able to accomplish her goal of running in and completing one of the most noted races around the world. Keep on running Tamara!!
